Workington Match Result

Unfortunately the weather was so poor that although the course remained open nobody wanted a soaking in a howling gale. The match will be rearranged.

Tuesday 9th May

Unfortunately I couldn't play today in what seemed good conditions. From the Club's website I see that David Low won with 41 points and Peter Taylor second with 39 and twenty six took part in playing for the John Todd Shield. I've been through the Club handicap list and several have been adjusted. Please ensure you play off the correct handicap.

John Kennedy Service

A service for John will be held at All Saints church Cockermouth at 1.00pm 15th May with a wake at Hundith Hill afterwards. Unfortunately this coincides with our match against Workington but John Dixon as an old friend will be attending and also representing the Sandpipers and has offered a lift to anyone who wishes to pay their respects. Contact John (Dixon) on Cockermouth 827346.

John Kennedy

Sadly, our old friend John Kennedy died overnight last night, the only comforting thing was that he had no pain, and it came quickly after he was diagnosed. I reckon he served on the committee for 15 years.
Geoff.
Those who played in our match at Powfoot will remember John turned up to renew old acquaintances.

Thursday 4th May

The strong north east wind put paid to some good front nine scores today. Fifteen played and Sandy Tonner's 34 points was the best of fifteen followed by David Low with 33. The new caterers have started and their menu looks pretty comprehensive.
