THE GLENMORE GOLF DAY is scheduled for September 3rd. If you play golf (or even if you dont!) then this is a great day out on the course with friends, families, colleagues and fellow Glenmore members. This is an important fund raiser for our club as well as some really good fun, nothing too competitive and the perfect way to get some fresh air and stretch your legs, or drive the golf buggy. Please reply to the email you will have received about this and feel free to get anyone you know involved too. All details in the Golf Day emails.
