We sadly lost an amazing man this year in Rod Howes, Rod was a member with us and was always a huge support to junior golf. Rod and I had many chats about his friend and my coach in the early days' Alan Bridge, he bought in some images he had taken of them both and I might say “Very fine Technique” back in the 1960s on his Kodak Brownie Box camera and we shared some amazing stories I’ll never forget. We laughed that once you'd met Mr Bridge you'd never forget him. Rod had recently purchased a Motocaddy trolley and Phil Hawkes has asked if we could hold a raffle for it and donate the money to our junior section here at the club. Thank you so much to Rod's family for this extremely kind gesture. Although Rod may no longer be striping the ball down our first fairway, he always did and is still making a difference. Thank You, Sir. Tickets £5 each and are available in the Professional shop from this Saturday, the trolley comes with a warranty from Motocaddy. All proceeds go to the Lee-On-The-Solent Junior Section. |
