Harrington Friday 26th June

I have a message from Bob Mitchell at Harrington regarding our visit next Friday, this is what he said, “with regard this coming friday , we are on stand ,as our course is very wet, we wont be able to get a decision on the course ( carts allowed or not ) till wednesday ,if we get too much rain between now and then we will have to postpone ,as it wont be worth playing with only walkers.

i will let u know late wednesday ,thats the best i can do.”

I will keep you informed by email and those not on email by phone of any communications from Bob.

I have just sent invitations to  Wingham and Harrington Vets for their visits to Wauchope in July. Wingham will visit for the 2nd Leg of the Neil Grant Memorial Shield on Tuesday 21st and Harrington will visit for 2nd leg of the Harri-Hope Shield on Tuesday 28th July. Both these days will be 8:30am Shotgun starts, to allow us to accommodate an extra 20 – 25 players.

President Peter Abell and I were invited to a meeting with the Country Club Board on Thursday night. All sub-clubs were invited with 2 representatives from each. The meeting was to distribute a paper on the achievement of many suggestions put forward by the Members and endorsed by the Board. This paper is on the bottom of this email. The message I received from this meeting is, the Board is working hard to increase business and improve cash flow. I would encourage all members to get behind what the Club is doing and don’t believe or pass on the rumours which seem to be doing the rounds. If you hear a rumour which you would like clarified, Bob Weston, Manager, is only too pleased to discuss it with you. Rumours and misinformation can only drag an establishment further down, we have enjoyed the facilities of this wonderful Club for many years, some of you have worked very hard to ensure the  club was viable in other hard times, it is  time we all got behind the Board and supported them. I would like to see all our Men’s Vets rejoin and keep our Vets a strong and solid sub club of Wauchope Country Club.
