The Duke’s Green Keeping

Suppliers Day 2012

On Tuesday 12th of June we hosted our suppliers golf day where 14 battle hardened teams played The Duke’s in a 4 man team texas scramble. The rain did consider spoiling things for us but the sun came through and a great day was had by all, especially the returning champions, Spaldings, who managed to defend their crown.  A huge thanks to all the suppliers who supported what is turning out to be a great annual event which is now in its 6th year. Some new features in the event this year saw a hickory challenge on the 16th hole where everyone used a hickory club for a nearest the hole prize which was won by Robert Marshall . Also on holes 3 and 12 we had a power play where there was an additional pin on the green in a tough position which you could earn double points for taking it on.

A fun day was had by all with the leaderboard being very tight at the top half of the leaderboard.

Winner – Spaldings 54 points

Runners up – Sherriff Amenity 53 points

Nearest Hole Hickory Challenge – Robert Marshall, Greentech

In addition we also held a charity raffle with prizes all donated by our suppliers where we raised £270 for Rachel House (CHAS) in Kinross. http://www.chas.org.uk/how_we_help_families/our_hospices/rachel_house

Looking forward to seeing everyone again next year.
