Gala Day was a huge success!
Thanks to all those people who were involved in Gala Day, Please find the full write up below.
Gala Day - Saturday 12th September
It started off as a bit of a grey day, but as is English weather it turned out to be a glorious day. There were 130 participants starting off at various times of the day. The format was an AM/AM in a team of 4 where best 2 scores counted on all holes. My team came in with a respectable 84 points but this was nothing compared to the winners.
The results were as follows:
1st - Brian Morse, Chris Moderate, Richard Cobley and John Thelwell with a stunning 94 points.
2nd - Gareth Owen, Charlie Stephens, Gareth and Gary Miles following closely with 92 points.
3rd - Mike Dunn, Lynda Hall, Gary Hall and Lyn Griffiths with 90 points.
Well done to everyone for entering it was an enjoyable day. It however, didn't finish there. In the evening the 'Parson's Nose Band' played for us. They are a Ceildh band and call out the steps as you dance. So you don't even need to know how to dance.
It was fantastic fun learning the routines and doing the dances. In was a very good work out. Just as much fun was sitting watching the people learn that dances. Going the wrong way, getting left and right wrong and then bumping into the person coming the other way. It was really good fun and as I say I think we all enjoyed ourselves. If you see them coming along again I would definitely recommend joining in.
