I will tell Steve in the Pro shop, which is directly below, to evacuate when we are eating.

Better make sure the Stannah Stairlift is working as well.

Been a bit hectic at work but just catching up now.....Mailbox cleared!

Attendee list updated to include the extra 8 places, (nice one Rich :thup.

I added the last few forumers that requested a place....particularly pleasing to see Sandy wanting to come along as Go-Kart were very generous with donations last year and have already confirmed they are doing the same again this year...Thanks Sandy and I think it's great that the manufacturers get involved with the Forum....it's just one of the things that makes this forum the best out there.

I've also started to include Forumers guests where they particular requested slots, (I've left off those that just said that they could help out if we needed the numbers).

Heres the list of attendees and the reserve list. Let me know if i need to make any changes.
Charity page will be created before the weekend.

Nothing wrong with trying to save a bit of cash Chris

Will PM you my phone number and e-mail details, but we should meet before if your going with YF to the open in July.
Have booked my room at Liphook for Sun and Mon night £67.
Room for an other on the sofa bed if anyone stuck.
I snore and f**t all night but do have GSH and normally a well stocked bar with me.

With 80 forumers attending, a great course and a great cause, surely this is potentially deserving of a proper article in the magazine rather than a write up in the forum section. The date would mean it would be in a winter edition when things are a bit quieter.

Now that we have a man on the inside.....I'm sure Tiger will be able to sway that....:thup:

OK that's this years bmycharity page set up so we can start fundraising!!!

www.bmycharity.com/GolfMonthlyForumHFH2012

I have led by example and paid my £25 donation/deposit so we are off and running. I set the target at £5,000 but it would be nice to get past last years total of £6,500.

I have also registered the event on the HFH website, and it will take around 5 days to receive our registration number.
So how it works is that all the players and their guests need to visit the web page, (link above and in my signature) and donate £25. This is your deposit for the golf day and secures your place. PLEASE make sure you tick the gift aid box if you are eligible, (last year around £1,250 was raised through the gift aid option).

It's also very important that you specify in the free text box that it is your deposit for the golf day and enter your Forum name. This is so I can differentiate between the golfers and anyone else who is just donating.

Anyone not playing who wishes to donate anything can also do so on this web page.

I will update the list regularly to show who has paid.

To spread the word, you can copy the link and put it on your Facebook page, Twitter, or anywhere else where people might see it and might want to donate.

I will update the page with some photos and a more personalised message later, but I just wanted to get the page in its basic form out there so people can start contributing.

I would ideally like to have all the players donations made by the end of February. The remaining £20 doesn't have to be paid until nearer the time.

If you pay a deposit/donation and then for some reason find that you can't play, there are 2 options:

1. Leave your deposit as a simple donation

2. If you can find someone to take your place and you would like your £25 back, get the £25 off them and they don't need to donate.

Clearly, once a donation has been made on the charity website, I cannot get it back.

Happy fundraising everyone!! :whoo:
