Dear Member,
Another fabulous week for Carmarthen Golf Club, I don't think any of us could have wished for a better start to the season. I'd like to welcome our new members, Louise, Linda, Karen, Henry, Leanne and May, I'm sure you'll enjoy a warm welcome from all the members.
The hot weather has meant many early starts from our Professional greenstaff, they have been starting at 4am to keep on top of the watering and keep the course in great shape. As you are aware I don't get to the club until midday in the early part of the week and Andrew, Sam and John have always got a smile on their faces, enjoying the job and a pleasure to work with. Well done boys and remember to water yourselves as well as the course.
Congratulations to Jamie Dean on his gross 69 on Sunday, fabulous score and great to see.

Good luck to the Captain's for Saturday, sorry I can't be with you this year.
