The last of the Vens away days was held on 11th October where the Summer Stableford Cup was being competed for. Arriving to meet 15 other Vens when the temperature was 3°C did not make me think of a Summer competition but I was informed that that the competition was always held at this time of year. Fortunately, though it was a chilly start the sun shone and we were soon taking off the winter mittens and stripping down to more summery attire.

 

The course was in excellent condition and quite scenic with rolling hills and fields surrounding.

​

Lunch back at the clubhouse was a home made chicken and mushroom pie followed by apple and rhubarb Crumble and custard which was eagerly enjoyed by the Venerables.

​

Many thanks to Steve King for faultless organisation of the event, it is always a pleasure to enjoy his competitions and away days, also Andrew Wyatt for photography and Dave Sephton for publishing on our website

 

Looking forward to next April's event.
