Key Draw
Night
KEY DRAW NIGHT is becoming a very nice
evening in the Club house where you can enjoy jovial company and have a
chance to win money. For £1 only you can buy a Key Draw ticket and if
your number gets pulled out you automatically get £25 and, additionally
if you are present, a choice of keys. If you choose the lucky jackpot
key you can take the jackpot which currently stands at £300 and is
expected to rise by Friday Night 14th April.
The draw takes place at 7.00
p.m. so why not come along. As you
will see the number of Keys is reducing so the odds on picking the
jackpot key are therefore increasing.
Note that if you are considering attending
Key Draw Nights the Caterer will have a limited choice menu available
at approximately £6.00

Pro Talk
I am sure like me you will have all enjoyed the Masters in
Augusta, where European hopes were again dashed primarily by
indifferent putting from Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter and others.
Surprisingly Tiger Woods who after 2 years appeared to be hitting
championship form fell away on day three.
It doesn;t seem like a year ago that poor Rory Mcllroy failed in the
last round to win the green jacket. But who was surprised to see Bubba
Watson (who claimes never to had a lesson) be crowned champion after a
sudden death play off with Louis Oosthuizen?
The season is now well underway with the first Gents, Ladies, Mixed
and Junior competitions already held. Lets all hope for continued good
weather and some fine Golf here at Dinsdale Spa Golf Club.
PRO SHOP
Shop wise I have got loads of new stock in and as always if I haven't
got what you are seeking please ask as I am sure I can get what you are
after at a reasonbable cost.
I look forward to seeing you at the Club this season

Message
from the outgoing Captain
As your outgoing Captain, and as expressed at the A.G.M., my thanks
go to my wife Gill for her support throughout the year and also to my
Vice-Captain Mike Pinder,to the retiring Chairman, Guy,to Martyn and
Andy,to the Office Staff,to the members of the Executive Committee, and
to the various Past Captains,who have advised and assisted me in making
it a most memorable year.
Also to those members with whom I have had the pleasure of playing
on Sunday mornings, and in the various Gents/Mixed Competitions.
The highlights have been both the Captain`s and Charity Weekends as
well as Captain`s Away Day at Appleby Golf Club.
I wish every success to Mike and Ann in their respective year of
Captaincy of a Club which, in my opinion is fortunate to have a testing
course, which James and his Greenkeeping Staff have brought to a
marvelous condition, a Clubhouse which is both welcoming and with a
great aspect, and complimented
by its hard-working and amiable Catering and Bar Staff.
My grateful thanks to you all.
Colin Clark- Captain 2011/2012
