Captains Fairwell
Last Saturday was our captain Lol Mcnally's farewell night and a packed clubhouse were there to celebrate along with Lol and his family .
Lol has done an exceptional fund raising effort for his charity this year and has raised over £5500.
The captain has raised around £3000 for the Guide dogs association which has enabled a young Labrador to be named Ashton and receive training to become an effective guide dog.
A cheque for over £2500 was also given to Wigan and Leigh hospice.
Our incoming captain Mick Bohannon takes over at the AGM and Viv Birchall is the new lady captain taking over from Linda Collins. Congratulations to both Lol and Linda and best of luck for the coming year to Mick and Viv. Farewell to Ben.
Another farewell this week is to Ben Johnson who finished on Sunday and starts with American Golf next week.
I know from all your comments that Ben is well liked and I am sure he will get on well in his new job. We haven't got rid of him completely though as he is still a member and will hopefully be playing in the competitions trying to improve his handicap as he still has ambitions to do his PGA training.
Good luck Ben I hope all goes well.
