Hi ladies,

I hope you are all keeping safe and well.

In light of the recent escalation of confirmed Covid-19 cases in Dublin, and heeding all the renewed warnings and requests to double down on our efforts to prevent the spread, I have decided to cancel the BBQ on the 18th September 2020.   The Committee is fully supportive of this decision.   The Radisson Hotel have been notified and, as previously agreed, will refund us 100%.

Regardless of whether the Government recommendations on the 13th September advise a relaxation in current restrictions for holding events, it is not worth putting our health at risk.   After all, we are a very special bunch of people who still have great strides to make on the golf course !

I think it will be a while before we can consider having any of our social events and all we can do is hope that before year-end we may be in a better position to allow one big celebration to mark this most unusual year.

Our Charity Day is Saturday, 19th September.  This will go ahead but will be a different format from previous years.   Golf will be our usual single stableford competition and, to facilitate the Fairways Captain’s Day, our tee times are 10.40 a.m. to 1.30 p.m.   The timesheet opens tomorrow evening at the usual time of 19:00 hrs.  I will be in touch again with more information on our Charity Day.

We are so lucky to have our golf and I look forward to seeing everyone travelling to Glen Mill this coming Saturday.

Keep safe everyone.

Best wishes,

Paula,

Lady Captain
