A few words of thanks from Captain Sandra Littlejohn -   From the RLCGA Website

"On behalf of Donna, Pearl, the Committee and myself, I’d like to thank everyone for their raffle and silent auction donations plus all the Renfrewshire Clubs that donated four balls as Star prizes in support of our annual fund-raising Beetle Drive at Haggs Castle Golf Club on Sunday. "

"A total of £1,200 was raised which is a fantastic amount. Judging by the noise level, everyone seemed to be having a great time catching up with friends and participating in a very competitive beetle drive."  

Thanks also goes to: 

 • Carol McNally, Doreen Mainds, Nicola McAllister and Linda Ellery for providing the retail therapy; 
 • Kevin at Haggs Castle Golf Club who made sure we were fed and watered - it can’t be easy serving up tea/coffee and cakes to 80+ ladies in a short period of time (and thanks to the bouncers Elaine Munn and Pearl there were no ‘cake wars’); 
 • Fiona Armour and Carol Fell, respectively, for all the photographs and video recording of the day; and 
 • Julie, June, Tracy and Pearl for selling/drawing the raffles, star prizes, looking after the silent auction, counting of the cash and making sure everything went according to plan. 

" Finally, I hope the 2020 golf season is a good one and I look forward to seeing many of you over the summer. "

 Thanks again. Captain Sandra
