Sorry for the delay with the results, I had a few days holiday this week. We presented the last two months of prizes at our recent Championship Day at La Serena. Camillus has the competitions running smooth as silk, many thanks Cam and team.
We had our rolls and drinks prepared by the kitchen staff, they are really appreciated and societies, they make for a nutritious snack and are available on order. Miguel and the green staff are really making progress in the recovery of the greens, well done to all the staff. Cristina, Jose, and Jean many thanks for all your assistance.
Together, the competitions committee, the green staff, and the golf shop work as one to facilitate the efficient and comfortable running of our tournaments and Championship days. Our captain George Thomas was on hand to get us through the plethora of prizes and results, thank you.
