Northamptonshire County Golf Club Charity Pro-Am - Monday, 13 July 2015
With spring in the air, that means summer is not far away! For many, playing golf during the winter is at best unpleasant and for some unthinkable! With the new season's grass showing signs of life, we can now hopefully look forward to another excellent golfing year.
With that in mind I would like to extend a warm invitation to you to support our superb Charity Pro-Am. As always we aim to ensure that we provide a first rate golfing challenge whilst also supporting local charities that help people in their time of need. Last year's event was a massive success with a broad range of businesses competing and just short of £10,000 raised for local good causes!
We are fortunate to have the support of two new Sponsors this year, Car Shop, and Tyres Northampton, with continued support from Olympus Care Services, Arjo Wiggins Creative Papers, Cotters Insurance, Ocee Design, Olympus Cameras, Jeffrey-West Men's Shoes, Nat West, Phil Beswick, and TaylorMade.
To stage an event of this quality we are always looking for other potential sponsors, so if you'd like your business to be associated with the most prestigious golf club in Northamptonshire, and the South Midlands, please contact me, details are shown below.
If you'd like to enter this year's Pro-AM please fill out an entry form and either mail it or e-mail back to the address detailed below. We recommend you enter early as places are limited. We look forward to seeing you on the golf course!
