| New 15th behind the current temporary 15th green |
The recently reconstructed 15th green is coming on well and should be
ready by the Captain's Drive In '12 if the weather continues to be
favourable. Comments about its design and structure have been positive
all round. The mild weather brought a large turn out of visitors and
members for the Open Fourball last Saturday that included entry into the
competition and a beef stew meal for only €15. This offer continues next
Saturday with some tee-times still available. The presentation of the
yearly prizes will take place next Saturday at 7.30pm prior to the
Captain's Dinner for which tickets can be purchased from the Office at
just €20 each. Includes cheese and wine reception on arrival followed by
four course meal and entertainment. Please support the "Find the Joker"
fund-raising for course accessories the next time your in the clubhouse
or pro-shop the draw will be held on the last Sunday of every month
during Winter season. With the jackpot now at almost €1,600 it would
make a welcome windfall to help with the Christmas shopping. The news
that the entrance fee to Enniscorthy Golf Club has been suspended until
the end of April 2012 has been welcomed by prospective new members. The
club also offers membership categories for five-day (€450) and distant
(€399). Enquiries should be directed to the Office 9233191 (1) and ask
for John. The club choir group are busy rehearsing in the clubhouse
Monday and Thursday evenings and hope to début at the Captain's Dinner
this coming Saturday evening Nov 26. The annual AGM has been set for Dec
11 at 6pm preceded by the Mens Club AGM at 5pm.

the chat and availed of the refreshments.
