Association of Friends of Shannon Court

The Joint lunch between the committees of the Friends' of Shannon Court and the Friends' of James Terry Court was very well attended. It was held at Betchworth Park Golf Club in Dorking.

Shannon Court Charity Golf Day – Betchworth Park GC Thursday 13th May 2010

Notwithstanding the ‘credit crunch’, last year’s event was a tremendous success – we raised almost £4,000 – and we have been able to secure Betchworth Park Golf Club again this year for our Charity Golf Day. We have also been able to maintain the cost at last year’s level.

The support given in previous years by the ‘Friends’ has made a significant difference to the comfort of the residents of Shannon Court and has been very gratefully received. Whilst this is just one of several fund raising events organised by the ‘Friends’ during the year it is without doubt the most important. You have been good enough to support this event in the past and I hope that I can count on you again for this very deserving cause.

The application form is available from the download page (or follow the link at the bottom of this article) and I would be grateful if you could complete and return it as soon as possible. If you have a surfeit of golfers who would like to play, or you are unable to raise a full team please let me have the names and contact numbers so that, if another team falls short at the last minute I can call on the ‘spares’, or form a ‘Wanderers’ team – bear in mind that there will be prizes for individual scores as well as team prizes.

Do remember that the competition is open to non-Masons, and that includes ladies who would be particularly welcome. Please contact me on the above telephone number, or email address if you have any questions.

Finally, we would be grateful for raffle prizes and items for the auction – please let me know whether you are able to supply one or the other (or both!).
