Just thought that I would give a quick update on the companies that have agreed to help with the fund raising already this year:
Sandy and the people at Go-Kart have donated a Go-Kart and Bag (she will also be playing as well)
Galvin Green have donated a couple of their top of range shirts.
Stewart Golf have donated a Z1 push trolley
Ping have donated a top of range bag and a 2010 open flag signed by Louis Oosthuizen
Remember the generosity of these companies when you are making purchases, many of these support this event year on year.
Plenty more emails sent so I will update as I get more replies.
I also apologise in advance in that I will be 'bending' forum rules slightly over the next few months and will be shamelessly plugging all the companies that help or donate.

Some great donations there GB72. I will be trying to get some fourballs from clubs that we can auction, as well as few bits off some local celebrities. Will also be looking for sponsors for holes, as well as advertisers in a programme. All systems go !!

JCW....I'm afraid the 80 spaces are full and we have a reserve list with about 10 names on it. Do you want to be placed on the reserve list?

My company might be able to sponsor depending on the amounts, so if you can me an idea on what the rates will be, I will try and sort something out

Hi GeneralStore, I've added you to the reserve list. There are already quite a few on it...........you're currently No. 15.

I know that there are alot of people on here who would like to help raise funds for Help For Heroes who cannot make it to the event or were too late to get one of the limited spaces. In my ongoing quest for prizes and auction items, I was talking to the communications director at Bushnell and she put forward a suggestion.
Bushnell are massive supporters of Help for Heroes and they are getting behind the National Golf Club Challenge. The basis is that any club can register and nominate one competition in June as a fund raising comp. This can be any normal club comp. The club can then decide how they want to raise funds on that day and it can be anything as simple as adding a £1 onto your normal competition entry fee. The top 10 mens and top 5 ladies cards are submitted and the top 3 clubs get to send a team of 10 to the final (I believe at Turnbury) then there is a final place for a team from the club that raises the most.
The link his here
http://www.nationalgolfclubchallenge.org.uk/challenge.php
I thought that this was something that we could all put to our committees. I know that there may be some opposition if the captain takes offence to another cause raising money instead of his nominated charity but I thought that this was a really good, simple way of a club making a difference and it can all be tied in with a normal comp.
Let me know what you think, if it seems popular I will put a sticky on the main section for a while.
PS I have run this past Rickg and MikeH as did not want to tread on the toes of GM or the forum event.

Good idea, I will put it to our Captain as H4H is his charity, and the bottom line is raising as much money as possible.
