AUGUST NEWSLETTER FROM YOUR LADIES COMMITTEE

Hello Ladies

We had a very successful July with three events – Race Night, Ladies Open Day and Afternoon Tea at Polly’s house. – which were all enjoyed and well attended.

July results:

July Medal                            Winner:  Jill Peppett

Summer Stableford            Winner: Alma Piddington

Ladies league match v Whipsnade at home – win for PRGC

Many congratulations to all the winners.

The Race Night on 22nd July was well supported and great fun.  Many thanks to Steve Sargeant and his helpers for organising the night.  No doubt a great deal of money was raised for the two captains’ charities -  MS and MND.

Our first Ladies Open Day was held on 26th July and was a great success.  The event was organised from beginning to end by Sue Pomeroy who did a fantastic job and is sure to be in demand to organise another one next year.  Our pro, Bruce, was also available to speak to prospective new members and help them on the practice ground.  A big thanks to Sue, Bruce and all the ladies who took part in so many different ways.

On 28th July Polly Allen hosted an Afternoon Tea at her home.  Many thanks to Polly for providing the ladies with a lovely treat.  The weather was good and the surroundings were beautiful.  Polly’s garden was an absolute picture.  On top of this £340 was raised for Jill’s MND charity.  Many thanks Polly for all your hard work.
