August 24th - Johnny Miller Fun Day

  • This was a major success this year - the best so far (apart from the appalling weather).

  • We far exceeded previous totals raised with the final figure being £850.

    • This money will be used to help fund the work of the Johnny Miller Volunteer Group (JMVG) both on the course and around the clubhouse - if anyone is interested in perhaps doing a bit of work with the group please contact Jayne Taylor.

  • The winning team was Ian Sandell, Lamar Stevens & Richard Bell. Well done!

  • Pauline Miller presented the prizes to the following winners:

    • Nearest Pin for Ladies was Amanda Barker

    • Longest Drive for Ladies - Sandi Christie

    • Longest Drive for Men - Nick Tanner (Nick also won the best costume for the day and I think you can see why!


Nick & Pauline (Do not adjust your screen - it is just the costume causing the hypnotic effect)

  • Following the prize giving and the raffle draw, one of our members - Mark Donachie - performed free of charge - he was absolutely brilliant and we thank him and his wife Pauline and also his son George (who also did a couple of numbers) for giving their time so generously to support the club.
