Dear Fellow Golfers
I begin my March edition of the blog in a sad way. Denis Clowes, our former Captain, sadly passed away on Tuesday 4th March following his brave fight against cancer. Denis has been a Roserrow stalwart over the years and the work and effort he has put in will never go unnoticed. Since his sad passing it’s dawned on me what a fantastic asset to Roserrow Denis was. He all but ran the seniors section of the club not to mention the work he did on behalf on the main club. We will always remember Denis and as a tribute, a bench will be placed on the 11th hole with a small plaque.
I am happy to announce the arrival of David Bragg to the golf team. David will be working alongside me on the day-to-day running of the golf side of the business. He will then be operating the new spike bar which I hope will be up and running within the next 4-6 weeks. David has been a member of Roserrow since 2001 and his knowledge of the operation has been of huge benefit to us all. Good luck David, we wish you all the very best in your new position.
Out on the golf course, all the new tees have now been completed ahead of schedule and praise must go to Daniel Townsend and his team for their efforts throughout this project.
The amazing run of “Holes in One” has continued in March also. The ever popular Seniors Captain, Mr George Wass scored an ace at the 7th hole. Now I would like to say that his shot was straight down the flag, took one bounce and went in……unfortunately however that couldn’t be further from the truth. Using the natural contours to his advantage his ball trickled down the right hand bank, onto the green and dropped in!! Congratulations George, and I am assured he purchased plenty of wine at the meal!!
Until next month – Happy Golfing Folks
