Hi everyone,
Welcome to the curling season when Lesmahagow Ladies will be celebrating our 50th Anniversary.
Alison and Merle will soon have access to the website to contact you directly. The delay in handing over is down to me because I've been away a lot over the summer. Until they're up and running, Alison's asked me to pass on some information.
Although the rinks were all drawn up at the end of last season, ice booked on time and the syllabus printed to plan, quite a few club members have suffered illness or injuries which have led to quite a few changes. I'm sure that you'd like to join me in wishing our curling friends a speedy recovery and in thanking Alison and Merle for the work they've put in to ensure that our competitions go ahead as scheduled.
Announcements:
Annual Get Together at Hollandbush Golf Club
This event has been arranged by Iain Callan, Club President, for Thursday 6th Sept at 7.30pm.
It will be a quiz night with buffet supper .
It'd be great to see as many members there as possible, not only to catch up on news, but also so that you can collect your syllabus for the season.
Please let Merle know if you are attending. 07734 925442
