It was not the normal format this year but the principle of fund-raising for Poppy Day remained the same. The weather held for the majority but leaves were always going to be a problem! Don provided posters around the course to remind everybody about the Royal British Legion fund-raising. Derek Lyon and family, two club captains and the rest of the committee provided an array of vouchers and bottles for the prizes. Ken’s son was unable to be present on the day but provided the traditional bottle of whisky for the winner. The prizes were very evenly spread except for Nearest Pin on 17 – nobody hit the green! We are taking 7th position on points with yet another bottle of wine! All of the individual and pin cards were scrutinised by Mike Hollings and his efforts with the new handicaps also deserve a mention – well done Mike. There will be a short prizegiving ceremony next Tuesday at approximately 2.15pm after the first of the Winter League competitions. Could all winners try to be present on the day. Finally, Steve picked up your entry fees for the Royal British Legion collection and they were extremely generous. On the day £330.00 was the total from the fees and members unable to play, for whatever reason, also contributed a further £62.00. Seniors alone on Tuesday raised a total of £392.00 but Steve is leaving the envelope until Monday next week, as more money has been donated by the rest of the club members. A final total will be turned into a cheque and presented to RBL at some stage. Well done all – a splendid effort all round.
