Ladies Open – Wednesday 17th August 2011.

Our teams consisted of 96 ladies from some 25 clubs as far afield as Cape Cornwall, Richmond, Yorkshire & Laerchenhof, Austria! Everyone enjoyed themselves despite the rain appearing unexpectedly halfway through the morning.

This year we had a very smart gazebo lent by the Seniors before 10th tee where Julie & her helpers dispensed soft drinks & home-made cakes. These were much appreciated.

The course looked fantastic & there were many appreciative comments.

The Seniors did a brilliant job helping us with the starting & the putting.

Alex Radwell was a star again & set up the putting competition, checked the cards & kept the scoreboard for us.

Very many thanks to Judy Richards for organising the day’s events & for her beautiful flower arrangements. Thanks to all the Committee & ladies for their help & support meeting & greeting, helping in the starter’s hut & on the course with refreshments. Our thanks to the bar & kitchen staff for looking after us so well.

Through the generosity of the ladies buying raffle tickets & also entry to the putting competition an amazing £300.00 was made for my charity, the Alzheimer’s Society.
