2024 President's Summer Meeting

It gave me great pleasure that my own Golf Club, The Lambourne should host my President’s Summer Meeting this year. The day was an enormous success with 80 ladies from eleven Buckinghamshire Clubs attending. The Clubhouse had a real buzz as everyone arrived to check-in and looked forward to a highly competitive day of golf, good fun and plenty of chat.

We were delighted to welcome two special guests, Christine Bishop, President of Oxfordshire and formerly a BCLGA handicap advisor, and Teddy Bevan, past BCLGA President.

The weather may have been a bit dreary, but it did not dampen our spirits.

The day began with a shotgun start, setting a fun and competitive tone.

At the halfway hut, we enjoyed scrumptious sausage rolls, mini cupcakes, fresh strawberries, and Pimms. In the absence of sunshine, these treats helped brighten our day.

After the golf, ladies enjoyed a sit-down lunch. The delicious meal was efficiently served by Debra and her capable team.

Congratulations to all the prize-winners, whose names are listed on our website.

A new fundraising initiative, Team Mulligans, was an enormous success, raising £400. These funds will help our County Team defend their title at the National Finals in Stover Golf Club, Devon, from 20-22 September 2024.

Special thanks must go to -

The greenkeepers who work tirelessly to present the golf course in such excellent condition. The pros, Scott, and his team for all their help in the smooth running of the day.

The front of house, Debra and her team and kitchen staff for a lovely halfway hut and a delicious lunch, reflected in the many compliments I received.

A heartfelt thank you to Beverley, The Lambourne’s joint Lady Captain, for her elegant flower arrangements which added a touch of beauty to the event.

And a big thank you to my husband Robert for his invaluable help and support and expert chopping up of the fruit for our Pimms.

I would like to extend a very special thank you to my fellow committee member Jackie Maher. Jackie, our Competitions Organiser, worked diligently behind the scenes to make this event a success. And thanks also to Rosemary, our Hon Secretary for her assistance on the day.

And finally, a very big thank you to all the ladies who supported my President’s Day and made this special event so memorable. I am enormously proud of my Club, The Lambourne, and I do hope you enjoyed your day.
