The club hosted another successful lunch for the sponsors, vice-presidents and life members of the club. An excellent meal was provided by members of the Friday Ladies group and certainly enjoyed by everyone. This has become a popular annual event, which the club thinks is the best way to say “Thank you” to all who support the various events held during the year. The November Winter Series of junior competition was held last weekend but not quite completed due to the dreadful weather.
