March Update from Captain Dick Pooley

Good day all,

As I write, the rain is tumbling down again and making this weekend’s events unpredictable!  The good news is that our Club has been open pretty much more than any other club in the area, in the main due to the hard work of all the greenkeeping team. Well done Jack and co, please keep it up.

Most regular players will know that March and April are the start of a busy golfing season, and I would ask you to take note of the Club Master Calendars for each month as issued separately by Al Bowyer, but also put up in the changing rooms.
