CAPTAINS PRIZE
Next Sunday the 20th of August is the date for the most sought after Prize of the year in the mens’ section, the Captains Prize. This years Mens’ Captain is Liam Whyte. The format will be the usual one of 18 hole Stroke followed by 9 hole playoff with presentation shortly after the finish of the playoff. There will also be a Captains’ Scramble on the preceding Friday with draw at 6, shotgun start at 6.30, all members are welcome to take part in the Scramble. The Captains Prize to the Ladies will now be on Saturday the 19th, having been rescheduled from the 13th.
We will have a volunteers evening this Wednesday to tidy up outside the clubhouse and on the course in advance of the weekends events. A good turnout for the volunteers evening would be appreciated to show support for our hard working Captain who has led by example with his hand-on involvement with the demolition of the old shed, moving of our shipping container and generally improving the appearance of the car park and adjoining areas.
