Royal Wedding Coffee Morning

Stephanie Gillen — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 10:46:54 +0000

Ladies, I hope you are all getting ready for the royal wedding coffee morning. It is taking place in the clubhouse tomorrow morning from 10 a. m. and proceeds are for the Cancer Care centre in Sligo.

In aid of a good cause, it looks like being a fun morning, fashion, discussion about (or criticism of) THE DRESS, coffee, friends and interest on screen and off.

Come on ladies, get your manicure done, put on your face and sally forth to the golf club in Rosses Point tomorrow at ten.

‘Adoptive Mothers’ Wanted!

Stephanie Gillen — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 22:53:01 +0000

Ladies, the popular Mothers and Bunnies event is to be played in Bomore on Sunday, April 17th at 2.30 p. m. over 9 holes. Carmel Sproule is the organiser and tells me that there is a shortage of mothers for the juniors who wish to play. It would be brilliant if every youngster, (they’re all under 14) had even a pretend mum to play with them. Would anyone who has a couple of hours to spare on the day, (it’s the Sunday before Easter) please consider playing and if so can they contact Carmel Sproule McGrath and let her know. I’m looking forward to it already.

Lady Pro Golfers in Ireland 2011 for Solheim Cup

Stephanie Gillen — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 10:19:44 +0000

The Solheim Cup is being played in Ireland in September. This is the “Ryder Cup” of Ladies’ golf and it is anticipated that all of us women will want to attend. The ILGU would encourage each club to appoint an “Ambassador” to promote the event. I’m not sure that there is one appointed here in Rosses Point so far.

The competition will be played between September 23rd and 25th. It should be a great spectacle and perhaps groups of members might like to attend. I hear that there will be season tickets available for the full event costing one hundred and fifty euros.
