What a fabulous day we had yesterday for the much delayed Presidents’ Prize 2020 played on our home course La Serena Golf. The sun beamed down on us with a sweltering 37 degrees and unusually little or no wind. The new greens are progressing nicely and much credit must go to the reduced hard working staff. Given the greens are less than 9 months old enhorabuena a todos.
We really are lucky to have such a fine facility at our disposal. Thanks to Jean, Bruno and Gloria for taking great care of us on the day. On behalf of the Junta may I heartily thank all those who supported the tournament and then attended the meal in El Prado San Miguel. Many thanks to Juan, Pilar and all the staff for a lovely meal and high quality that you are renowned for, muchos gracias.
As is the custom, Camillus and his team, of Philip, Alan and Terry, our competition committee, merit a special thank you and congratulations for their sterling work. Thanks go to our treasurer Denis, he keeps all our accounts in fine order and can always be called upon in our hour of financial, mathematical need.
Our secretary Susy, I better not leave her out or I will be in the dog house, she works behind the scenes and makes our lives so much easier when dealing with the federation. Thank you one and all, it really is an excellent team.
