Venue : Bonalba Golf &Spa, Wednesday,16th October 2013.
Today was President’s Day. Our President, Jeff Murton, presented us all with a Titleist ball before we started our round of Stableford. Everybodyl enjoyed this day “with a difference”. In order that the results stayed secret until the prize giving, Jeff and his wife Caroline attended the two par 3’s on the front nine which were nominated for nearest to pin and also the 15th and 18th hole where we had to drive “nearest to the rope” . The weather also played its part to add to this very pleasant day with summer temperatures reaching the 30’s. Directly after the golf, we had the prize giving and all winners were presented with magnificent crystal trophies. The overall winner, Chris van Bemmelen, will also have his name engraved on the silver Presidents Trophy which stays in the club house. However, on this day he was able to hold it and he proudly paraded it around the meeting room. Well done Chris!
To round off the day, Jeff had arranged to have dinner at the beautiful restaurant “MISTER X” at El Planet, Altea. About 25 of us were able to attend and enjoy a delicious meal served by very attentive and friendly staff. Jeff very kindly donated the wine to go with the meal, followed by some more complimentary drinks from the restaurant. So all in all a jolly evening. Thank you, Mr. President!
