• 4. MATTERS ARISING: The Bring & Buy held on the Draw Night raised just over £90 but since the food was £5 ahead, the evening ran at a loss. It was decided that next year's Committee would have to look into making the evening more profitable.

 

• 5. CAPTAIN'S REPORT: I am sure you are all aware the Club has been bought by the owners of Long Sutton Golf Club. The three Captains are meeting them next Wednesday evening when I will put any questions you may wish raised. The good news is we still have a golf club. The notice which appeared on the front desk has been causing some concern as it would imply that we can no longer assume that we can block book times for our ladies roll up,, medals etc. Having looked at the Long Sutton website and printed off the Ladies Monthly roll-ups, the Management have now agreed to let us block book, so long as we use it sensibly. Block bookings for Competitions to be raised at Management meeting. Tuesday bookings may also be questioned. The Open Bowmaker has tee times booked from 9 - 12 - that is 57 ladies. There needs to be more entries, so to push it at any matches etc. also on the Coffee morning which is well supported. Notices to go up for cakes, jams etc, plants. Tombola instead of raffle. 3 Captains Day raffle to be run by Dawn.
