Macmillan Longest Day
On Sunday, 18 June three of our members (Adam Williams, Sam Charman and Oliver Trevarthen) took part in the 72 hole challenge run by Macmillan Cancer Support. The day, which happened to land on the hottest day of the year so far, started at 4:10am courtesy of The Bristol Golf Club and Rich Ponsford, followed by three rounds at Clevedon starting at 7:20am, 11:00am and 4:00pm where they found the course was in excellent condition.
The lads are close to reaching their target donation of £1,000 and would like to share their Just Giving page with you, if you would like to make a contribution to such a good cause simply click here. They would also like to thank the Golf Club Poker Boys, who generously made a cash donation after their final round.
