CONDOLENCES
We were all deeply saddened when the news reached us of the passing of our former Captain, Liam Fitzgerald. Liam was a very prominent and loyal member of our club. He was a real gentleman and wonderful company on and off the golf course. Liam will be sadly missed by all his friends in the club. We extend our sincere condolences to his sons Scott and Shane and daughters Julie, Lisa and Susan. Our thoughts are with them and all of Liams extended family and friends at this very sad time. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
We extend our sympathies to the family of Ted Dipple who passed away recently. Ted was a Pavillion member of our club and enjoyed his weekly snooker games with his friends at the club. May he rest in peace.

CAPTAINS SCRAMBLE
Our Captain’s 9 Hole scramble took place last Wednesday 4th June. The day started out with lovely weather but closer to our shotgun start time the heavens opened and the showers when they came, were very heavy. That did not deter our hardy golfers who despite getting soaked played their 9 holes and made the best of a wet situation!! We enjoyed tasty food and refreshments after golf thanks to Tom and his team.
