24 Hour Golf Event - June 23
Andy Prowse, Les Oman, Darren Lawton & Mark Bowden (Mdp Devonport Marine Unit) are attempting the Ultimate Golf Challenge in aid of Archie's fund.
Starting at 0830hrs on Monday June 23 we will be attempting to play 4 full rounds at Wrangaton Golf Club within 24 hours. This means we have to play 3 full rounds on day 1 0830 to 2130+ then start again before 5.00am to finish the challenge by 0830.
Wrangaton is the toughest walking course in the area and this is why we wished to play it for the appeal. Most people when they attempt this challenge choose an easy flat course but we wanted the toughest challenge hoping people would dig deep.

I am delighted to confirm that Liskeard Lions Club will be sending a cheque for £500 for Archie's fund.
In addition to this the Lions are holding a fun run of 6 miles at Bake Farm on May 18th [this is near Trerulefoot]. There is an entry fee of £3 and £1.50 for children, and we are hoping a lot of the Hash will partake, including you and you friends and family. Archie's fund will be advertised and approx 50% of the profits will go to Archie's fund.
Plus the Torpoint Lions do a sponsored dip at Cawsand on Jan 1st next year and about 8 of us are going to do it totally in aid of your dear grandson's fund [I hope my important little parts survive the cold water].
I hope you are happy with the efforts, see you in mid March
Kind regards Dockleaf |
