Just like to let everyone know that the 2013 REMF Golf Day was, financially, the best ever.
Although there was a bit of light rain about, it was very mild and virtually no wind. The rain cleared later and most golfers ended their rounds in warm, dry weather. The golf was followed by a 4 course meal, which everyone agreed was excellent, and then we had the presentation of trophies and prizes followed by the auction and raffle.
The auction was a massive success. I asked "Granny Weatherwax" to do the calling and this raised the magnificent sum of £840. The raffle, thanks to my wife, realised nearly £600.
We had nearly 70 golfers out, and they supported the REMF in a magnificent manner. This is what makes the day. People come and have a great day out, but they make it even better by supporting the day when they are there. Even the catering staff at Mid-Sussex G.C. had a bumper day by what was collected from the tables during the meal.
Many thanks to my wife, Linda, and youngest daughter, Katherine, for their invaluable help for the raffle and through the day, John and Terry for "doing" the cards, and for Dave, (Granny Weatherwax), for the auction.
Oh yes, almost forgot, we had a profit of over £3,000, to be exact, over £3,200.
Many, many thanks for all those that made the this such a memorable, and the best, REMF Charity Golf Day yet.
You were superb.
See you all next year.
