The Celts Club de Golf.
We played our November Open Day at La Serena last Saturday. Weather conditions were ideal for golf a mild 20 plus degrees with little or no wind, lending itself to good scoring. The golf course was as is the custom presented to a very high standard and again we must thank Wayne and his team for their efforts.
To the staff in the pro-shop thank you, Jean, Jose and Paul for preparing the cards, the results and also the room for our presentation of prizes. Our competition committee are doing sterling work thank you Camillus ably assisted by our vice/captain Terry. Can I again remind players to please return your cards as soon as possible to the shop on the open days so that they can generate the results on the computer and return the scores to Madrid.
If you fail to return your card you cannot have your handicap adjusted and it also delays the presentation of prizes. We would like to thank all those who were present to collect their prizes. Can I remind prize winners that we hold our monthly presentation of all prizes for the previous month at each of the Open Days, if you are not able to attend can you appoint a member to collect your prize on your behalf.
