Golf day at Turnberry

JCS Golf Day at Turnberry 2022

On Thursday 15 September we were delighted to welcome 72 golfers to our SOLD OUT Golf Day at Turnberry.  The weather was on our side as our players enjoyed The King Robert the Bruce course.

As well as breakfast rolls on arrival and a packed lunch for the course, our teams enjoyed a delicious two-course meal of salmon and chocolate tart in The Champions Suite.  And it really was the Champions Suite as we welcomed football legends Gordon Smith and Jim Melrose for an informal Q&A with TV broadcaster and sports journalist David Tanner.  David Tanner, JCS Chairman Dr Richard Groden and our loyal volunteer Lennie Wilson presented the prizes to our many winners, including prizes for the longest drive, nearest the pin, best individual stableford points as well as 2nd and 1st place.  Martin Newman and his team, some of who had travelled from London, were presented with their trophies and prizes, sponsored by Slater Menswear, as the event winners!

With huge support from our local community including Bonnyton Golf Club, all of our prize donors, our sponsors and the generosity of our players themselves we were delighted to raise over £8,000!  All profits will go towards delivering our vital services, which could be needed in the coming months more than ever.  Special thanks goes to our event sponsors Together Money, Slater Menswear and fatBuzz.  Thank you to everyone involved in making the day such a great success!
