CAPTAIN'S REPORT 2020

I would like to inform the membership that the next AGM Lunch and Prizegiving for the Midland Vets will be Wednesday 20th October 2021 at Glenbervie Golf Club. Unfortunately for us all, season 2020 holds no sunny pictures and memories of our golfing programme in the Midland Vets. However,"Hope springs eternal" and your committee has set in place, a rollover of the fixtures as follows: SPRING MEETING Monday 19th April 2021 Auchterarder Golf Club SUMMER/CHAMPIONSHIP Monday 5th and 6th July Tulliallan Golf Club G'somes Stableford Thursday 12th August Dunnikier Golf Club Autumn Meeting Wednesday 1st September Leven Golf Club Annual Matches Midland vs North Alyth Thursday 6th May " East Mortonhall Thursday 13th May " West Troon Portland Thursday 27th May Our Treasurer, Joan Prentice and the committee on the 2020 fixture card have said they will continue for the rollover into the 2021 season. Dorothy Ford from Scotscraig will take up the Captain's office and is delighted to inform you that her Vice Captain will be Pat Bow from Glenbervie. I will slip into Margaret Tough's position as Past Captain. May I take this opportunity to thank Margaret, on your behalf for her unstinting leadership and support and on a personal level, Margaret, you are not off the hook just yet. As you are aware the post of secretary has been unfilled for two years and it is to Margaret's credit that a new work practice, shared amongst the committee has resulted in an efficient and purposful administration. Thank you to all the committee "gals" for your continuing support. The current membership is S&C 43 members Fife 57 members and P&K 67 members. Everything seems to be nicely "tee"ed up for next season ladies, and lets hope that the VIRUS is under control and we are all able to enjoy our golf courses and the friendship of THE MIDLAND VETS. Best wishes, Liz The Financial Report will follow
