Good decisions; Men's Charity and Cream Teas

Saturday and Sunday 11th/12th August

Saturday dawned grey, wet and windy - foggy even...plus rain. 

Captain Sue made the excellent decision of calling off the Trophy Competition and rescheduling for another day.
Thanks Sue!

The committee however did meet... (thanks to all who serve on the committee... it is a thankless task generally... but we do appreciate what you do!).

Sunday was the Men's Captain's Charity Day and we played a Betterball Stableford competition off 90% handicap.

The day had begun with fog and rain and I think many of us had to drag ourselves out of bed... dreading the thought of getting soaked in heavy showers or peering through mist to see if we could spot the ball. 
But in fact conditions turned out to be perfect!
This hole is getting bigger!

The scores were great with Frieda and Jayne coming second among the women with 43 points... being beaten by Lindsay and me with 45!!
Conditions really were super!

In the men's competition the winners were Timmy B and Dean G who also scored 45!

The Joe Churchill Trophy (for the men plus a guest) was won by Steve B and Dan Ferris with 47 points - Dan gave a good speech saying it was an honour to come back and win it. 
Chris L and Norman (Manley) were second in that competition with 46 points... both Norman and Dan are now members of West Cornwall.

Thanks to Roy for arranging the day and raising money for Sue's Charity.

Cream Teas.

Sue S was hosting a Cream tea to raise money for the Gaiety girls. 

It was lovely to see so many people; that cup of tea was absolutely perfect as were the scones, jam and cream ....thank you - (and the garden is looking lovely!)
Enjoying the Cream teas
