Welcome to issue 45 of the newsletter
The Club's Awards Presentation Lunch is seriously under threat due to lack of support. I find this very disappointing but unless as many players as possible send in their orders before Sunday, I will have no option but to cancel it. The time-consuming effort to order the awards and get the engraving done on the perpetual trophies will be wasted if you do not support the Lunch on Sunday 3rd June. The Lunch is a social event giving you all a chance to have a drink and some food with other Club Members whilst celebrating our Award winners. All I need is some effort from as many as possible to make the event viable. A couple of players have emailed me saying they cannot attend but I really DO need the rest to respond with some urgency this coming week - or I will have no option but to forget the whole thing. I have extended the deadline to SUNDAY 20TH MAY - that's next Sunday. Below are the details but you should have received an emailed reminder. Please do NOT delay any more - support this event!

AWARDS PRESENTATION LUNCH: SUNDAY 3RD JUNE 2012 – TIME TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT
This season's Awards Presentation Lunch has been scheduled for Sunday 3rd June 2012 at The Round Bush, Round Bush Lane, Aldenham, at 12 noon. Since the Club Awards will be presented for season 2011/12, we would like as many Club Members to attend as possible.

The cost of the main course is reasonably priced at £7, £9, £11 or £13 (see below) for a generous plate of good food. The main course must be paid for in advance which both reserves your place and makes payment by the Club easier on the day. Starters and desserts (although, unless you've got a large appetite, the main course should be ample) and drinks must be bought separately. Prices have been rounded up to allow for a service charge to be made on the day.
