NOTICE: To all Seniors Golfers;
Castlecomer Open Week runs from Fri, 25th July – Sat, 2nd Aug. We require volunteers to take entries during these 9 days – shifts are 8-11, 11-2 and 2-5pm. If you are able to help, please contact Pat Parle at 086 8100674 or myself at 087 2892887.
Pat will be in the clubhouse next Wed morning before golf looking for volunteers and I will be there after golf is finished.
There will be 2 people on the desk taking entries at all times, the work is easy, so why not give it a go !!!
It’s a good opportunity for Seniors to help during Open Week and would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Donie Walsh.
