PRESIDENTS DAY 2024

Ninety Five ladies participated in the County President’s Day held at Benton Hall on Friday 27th September.  There were concerns that the course would be playable after a week of heavy rainfall and threatening river levels but in the end the day was bright and breezy with showers and the course in excellent condition.  The purpose of the day is to raise funds for the ELCGA Girls’ Bursary, the final figure is yet to be confirmed but will be in the region of £2,000.  The raffle alone took £709 and the 4 Ball Voucher Auction £850.  Many thanks to all for your generosity.

The competition was an Aggregate Stableford in Teams of 3.  Congratulations to all the winners.
