Well, once again I'm unable to attend the HFH golf day, but have made my usual donation instead.

Enjoy the day everyone & well done guys on organising it yet again.

James, just to echo Richart's thanks.....that's extremely generous of you.......thanks for the continued support, hopefully you'll get to play next year.... :thup:

With your donation and HDA's deposit that takes us past £2k.... :clap:

What is the raffle that I've seen mentioned. Sorry to be lazy and not look back through posts.

We have a raffle in the day....usual prizes, wine, spirits, balls, brollies, etc etc etc. Players are encouraged to bring a raffle prize with them and we sort them into suitable lots.......Tickets are a fiver each or £10 for 3. This year we are trying to encourage people to buy tickets using the charity page in advance so there is less cash to carry around and count on the day.

We will be also holding the usual auction on the day with some of the auction prizes being offered on here so forum members who are not playing get a chance to bid on some of the lots.

Again, we rely a lot on generous forum members to donate 4 ball vouchers and any other gifts they think would make good auction prizes. A lot of clubs will offer a 4 ball voucher as a prize if asked nicely and they believe in the cause. Or they may have the odd club gathering dust in the corner of the pro shop that they just can't sell and might be happy to donate. Our forum members are a resourceful lot and never fail to disappoint. The more auction prizes we can get, the more money we raise for the charity. :thup:

Greg is already doing his great work with the manufacturers who have always been generous in the past and have come up with some fabulous donations.

Hello Rick, I have paid my donation now. You will find it is in 2 payments as when I went in through your link, it came up with a £25 donation so I paid that then realised on here it was £30. So I made a second payment of £10, £5 to make it up to £30 and imposed a £5 fine on me for not doing it correctly first time....:thup:

Just wondering what the situation is regarding guests, as my mate who played last year was asking this morning.

Adey, Rick will be posting details on guests shortly.

Adey, Rick will be posting details on guests shortly.

With only a few places left we can't just open it up as so many people want to bring guests it would be a free for all, so what we have decided is the following:

Anyone who brought a guest last year will have first choice to bring the same guest again this year. We'll give it another week to see how many spaces that leaves.

From next week we will then open it up to anyone who is travelling a long distance and needs to bring a guest to help with petrol costs and can't find another forum member to share with. If we run out of spaces, we'll select by furthest distance to travel and then the others will go on the reserve list. We usually get a fair few drop out during the year, so these ultimately should get a place.

Hope this meets with everyone's approval.

Cheers mate, I will let him know. :cheers:

 

[richart]

Any more guests that played last year want to play again this year at West Hill ? Those eligible include MadAdey's, HotDogAssassin's, Wookie's, and GolfBallWhackerGuy's guests plus any I may have missed. Adeys and GBWG's guests have spaces reserved.

Also there a quite a few forumers deposits we could do with being paid to the H4H site. Once they have all been paid we will know exactly how many further guest spaces we have available.

Rick/Richard could you remove me off the list, unfortunately I won't be able to make it as I'll be away but I'll still make a donation to the fund.

Thanks.

Can we request that the entire team has to wear the same trousers that Mike had on today? See twitter for anyone that missed MikeH in his as he calls them "cassis" trousers. (read Pink)
