THANK YOU, SUDBROOK MOOR !!
The club has continued a strong commitment to its nominated charity, Marie Curie Cancer, and with over 20 years of fund raising we decided to make a bigger effort over the summer. Funds came in from golf competitions, the forfeits from the charity bunker on the 6th hole (15th), gifts and donations. The special boost came from an idea from Paul McCarthy, who lent us his own Olympic Torch that he had been privileged to carry as part of the 2012 pre-Olympic relay through Lincolnshire, on its way throughout the UK. So, during the month of the August Rio Olympics we took donations for photos to be taken with the torch. The Tuesday Ladies also played a Pentathlon of Golf Competitions and the total sum raised here for Marie Curie Cancer in the July to October period was £722.33. The total for the year was £1,047.33. The Seniors’ Captain’s morning raised £119 for the Skegness RNLI Lifeboats. The national endeavour, Sports Relief, in March inspired the raising of £117.32. In November, our collection for The Royal British Legion also realised the sum of £135.84.
We hold several fund raising events throughout the year to help raise much needed funds for this important charity.
