Yesterday we celebrated our September Club Championship at our home course La Serena. Thankfully the temperatures are beginning to return to tolerant levels. As always, we must thank those who make this day a success. Martha and Jean thank you for sorting the app and the results.
Thanks to Michael our course marshal. The green keeping staff under the guidance of Miguel are getting through all the drainage works, very impressive it looks too. Fina, Vanessa, Brian, Marijose and all the clubhouse staff thank you. Our rolls were lovely. Denis and Alan looked after the competition and our captain Dave was there as always to present the prizes, even though he looked like he had been in a scene from Gladiators.
