Update to Overnighter 2021
Hi Ladies
I would just like to give you all an update on the overnighter, first of all I would like
to advise everyone to please take a home Covid test before the event as everyone
will be sharing a room. I can only advise you but it is for the safety of your roommate
and of course yourself.
Secondly I have changed the meal time from18:00 which we were never going to make,
it's now 19:45 which was the latest time they could give us.
As I mentioned in the earlier blog the first tee time on Sunday is 11:50 last one at 13:00
I have now done the draw for Sunday which I will list below. The format will be 4BBB
with full course handicap no higher then 36 due to limited time. There will be a
1st & 2nd prize for wining pairs plus nearest the pin on the 7th hole each day. Hope
the weather turns up for us, it may be the week when that heatwave
they been mentioning turns up, fingers crossed.

Newlife the Charity for Disabled Children - Feedback from the charity
Ladies,
Diana has received the following details from the charity that she and Lew Evans chose to support during their Captains Year. I am sure you will agree that the money was well spent and has clearly changed the families lives for the better. The photographs referred to are shown in the changing room.
Dear Diana,
I hope that you had a wonderful weekend.
Please find attached details of the children that have benefited from your fundraising and year as Ladies Captain.
We are able to share 4 stories with photographs of some of the children as their families have given permission. The other children are not mentioned personally; however you can see by the records the number of local children that you have helped.
Thanks again on behalf of all the 11 families for what you have achieved as it has made a fantastic difference.
Kindest Regards,
Paul

Jessica, aged 8, Jessica has low functioning autism and requires supervision at all times to maintain her safety. She has no
awareness of danger. Her behaviour fluctuates on a day to day basis.
We hope to be able to receive a new disability push chair for Jessica. This will enable us to ensure her safety and give us the opportunity to enjoy more family days out. I believe this will boost our mental health as a whole family.

Katie, aged 7, Katie is non verbal autistic and has hypermobility in her joints.
She is too big for her pram at the moment but we don't have any other option as on a good day which is rare she will walk maximum 200 yards. most days she won't get out and walk at all. Days out are very difficult and cannot cope without a pram / stroller, as she is too heavy to carry now and also with her
additional needs she always has to have certain foods and nappies etc with us.

Jack, aged 6, has complex epilepsy and a rare tumour that has led to speech and communication difficulties. Jack also has a lack of understanding and it can become very stressful for him when trying to get him in and out of his car seat and because of this his family only go out in the car for essential journeys.

Lady Captains Day
There were 36 ladies today for the Lady Captain’s Day and I am sure they will all agree it was a lovely day. The weather was dry at least, there was plenty of Pimms flowing, although I am not really convinced it helped some teams, but they left happy anyway. A special well done to Shirley who was clearly in a lot of discomfort but continued to the end, l hope you don’t suffer too much tomorrow.
The results were;
1st. Rena Jones, Eileen Tuson and Jacqueline Hunt 77 pts. (o.c.b.)
2nd. Anne Smart, Jill Gambling and Janice McConnell 77 pts.
3rd. Deborah Tennant, Jane Woodward and Julia Smith 76 pts.
Nearest the pin on 8th Lesley Shott
Nearest the pin on 13th Lorraine Cox
Nearest the line Diana Scott.
Well played ladies.

Lady Captain’s Day
Ladies can you please confirm with the club by tomorrow if possible, whether or not you are going to stay for sandwiches and cake after the game. The cost will be £9.50, all the food will be plated for each person to ensure it is COVID safe, so you can only swap sandwiches at your own risk if someone else is willing.
Joining together for food is a big part of Captains day so please join us if you can and help make it a day to remember for Carol.
If you have any dietary requirements please let the club know when you pay.

Competition Sign Up
Ladies, we are going to change the timetable for signing up to competitions. As we no longer need to get to the club in order to sign up and view the draw, we have decided to open the draw 5 weeks before the start date and publish the draw one week beforehand. This will hopefully mean that if circumstances change for people, for the most part they can withdraw before the draw is made.
