"Many thanks first, to the Working Group. Second to the great majority of RCTB members who helped on the day. It is probably invidious to pick out individuals but particular thanks to the WG: David R and Ian who put in a massive stint both before and during the day; Peter B for heavy labour and guidance/experience; Mike for almost non stop cajoling on the putting green; David C for an invaluable debut; and Brian for both well received catering and masterminding the Grand Draw and Raffle.
Then, Frank and Chris for setting up the course, Chris for photography, Paul for taking charge of stocking the drinks tent, Bernard and Peter H for stepping in for Ed on starter duties (inter alia), Richard for a magnificent display of flags, all who filled slots in rotas, and not forgetting the ladies who assembled the prizes and sold tickets.
I think it went well - we were lucky with the weather! There were some very good scores - very well played 'the Divotees'. I think Kember the Lady Mayoress enjoyed herself (again) and thanks Frank for buying the pink gin and lemonade(s). I think the charity reps spoke well and appreciated being there.
The end of the prize-giving was nicely rounded off by the auction of the St Austell GC voucher for £100. Who knew that Frank is a gifted auctioneer (or that Kember bought the voucher for her boss - an avid golfer)."
