Lady Captain's Report


Well the diary has started to hot up now and we had our first quiz night of the year on 19th May and again a great success, although we were moved to the small room I didn’t think it mattered at all, very cosy – a big well done and thank you to Jeanette and Bernie as they work so hard on this event, thank you to everyone that donated raffle prizes and over £200 was raised for the charities from this.
Bank holiday Monday and it didn’t rain!! We had the Mixed Team Captains competition and what a great time we all had.  Thank you to everyone who played and again donated prizes and nearest the pins.  We raised over £750 for the charities so thank you all for being so very generous.
On Saturday 3rd June, we played the Viv Allen trophy competition, we decorated her bench with balloons and Sue made a beautiful planter. It really looked lovely. Lesley made a beautiful bouquet for the winner who was Pat West and Roy came to give the prizes.
The next day we had our mixed flag, another fun competition!!  We played on the Hurricane for a change and 3 couples went up the first.  Well done  to Joe and Julie who were the winners.
Malcom and Sue Gofton very kindly invited Roy and I to the Ellenor charity day at Mid Kent Golf course and to say it was windy and pouring with rain would be an understatement!! We played 6 holes got thoroughly drenched and gave up and came in and had ham egg and chips and the raffle – we couldn’t even win that, but it was a good day and the charity raised lots of money. Thank you, Malcolm, and Sue.
Sue Gofton also invited everyone to her ladies’ night where she chose Ellenor for her charity, Lisa Georgina and I went and we had a great night.  The venue food and company was excellent and Sue is just counting the monies and will let us know soon how much was raised. Well done Sue and thank you.
On Tuesday we played in the Past Lady Captains day and it was great fun. Some teams made good use of the switches !!! and some didn’t.  The stories in the club house after were hilarious, thank you Jane for a very funny and well organised day. 
Good luck to all the Ladies that have entered the Masters. Don’t forget your sun cream and water.
Till next month, much love
Gill

COBTREE FRIENDLY RESULT

Our new fixture was played under the sweltering sun on Saturday and the welcome was equally warm, as we were greeted with not only our bacon rolls, tea and coffee, but also orange juice, bottled water and an array of snacks! Prizes were to be awarded for nearest the pin on all par 3s plus a longest drive. Wow, the bar has been set very high for next year!
Mostly the matches were played in a good and friendly atmosphere (the odd exception of Rita....) and fun was had. Unfortunately too much fun was had it seems (!!) and we lost 2.5 to 1.5! However we didn't leave without picking up a few prizes: Eileen and Jill both had a nearest the pin and Kim won longest drive.
Cobtree were great hosts and the course was beautiful so well worth a visit. My thanks to the team, a great effort by all, the winning/losing margin but a few shots here or there. .
