President Sean Cashman acknowledgement.

30/8.  I want to thank all who took part in this weekend’s competition and the other events last week, Senior Ladies, Social Mixed, Senior Men’s.   These events and in particularly the President’s Prize don’t just happen, it takes a hardworking team of volunteers behind the scenes to pull it all together. In particular circumstances I am extremely grateful to Lady Captain Michelle Hassett, Captain John Greed, Vice Captain, Declan Russell, Les Mason, Pat O’Connell, Marian Keely and Kay Brennan just to mention some, who helped out in various ways to ensure the smooth running of the competition and presentations.  Thanks as always to Pat O’Connell for the excellent condition of the course.  I congratulate Jerry Keegan Snr. on claiming the top honours.  Congratulations to all the other prize winners on their results. Regards, Sean.
