Members Survey
The Golf Club Committee have decided to conduct a survey to see if there are any areas where members feel that the club could improve. It is a very short questionnaire and your feedback would be greatly appreciated, it should only take 2 minutes and there is chance to win a £50 voucher in a prize draw for those who complete it.

We need your feedback
Thank you to all the members who have already provided their feedback on the catering service at the club. Mike Saul, Sue Pritchard, Linda Mottram and Graham Evans have done a splendid job interviewing a number of members to give us a good initial insight into what might attract more members into the restaurant and trying the bar food.
We still need some help from the wider membership and are encouraging everyone to fill in the membership survey.

Monday Night Mixed Social
Monday evening continues to be a fun event. The format is a mixed greensomes where you are drawn for partners. Played across the front nine off the ladies index, it's a great social game and improves your golf as you often find yourself playing from distances and positions you would not usually be in. The competition is a stableford and is followed by an informal supper and a chat at which prizes are presented for the top three teams together with a spot prize.
Twenty five players took to the course this Monday. The course conditions and fine weather saw some good scores returned with and taking third place with 18 points. Dave Clark and Caroline Sycamore edged into second position by just one point, but were pipped to first position on countback by Sally Martin and Roger Withinshaw. However great golf played by Elaine Adams and Bob Hill saw them convincingly into pole position with 22 points. Players retired to the clubhouse to enjoy a choice of Lasagne, Jacket potatoes or tasty burgers with chips.
If you would like to play in this very enjoyable evening you would be more than welcome. Just sign up on the mixed notice board in the club. It's a great opportunity to meet people and enjoy a fun format.
