Boards GS Outing - Gowran Park GC - 29th August, NB 11.10 first tee time

    As mentioned in the other thread, Portarlington is out due to the 3 county lockdown.

    After some rushed phone calls this morning to try find an alternative, I've gotten us a booking. Was tricky given the timing. Coincidentally the best date I could get was the 29th, which should also allow, assuming things settle down, all of our members to get there.

    So, it's back, after a couple of years away to Gowran. A course set in with a race course, and the site of my first ever Boards win, if my memory serves me correctly.

    A great society golf course, which will test your game but reward good golf well (https://gowranpark.ie/golfing/)

    Cost for the day will remain the same as Portarlington at 35+2 with Revolut used for payment where possible.

    Apologies for the late change and hopefully the outing suits everyone.

    We've space for 33 golfers, out in 3 balls, so hopefully pace flows well.

    Mods, appreciate if you could sticky this

    Space i pm,d you last night with an idea for an alternative for next Saturday

    Fair play for arranging a new venue so soon Space. I doubt this was what you had in mind when you took over this year.

    I can actually play in this one, so i'm extremely selfishly happy :o

    Never got any message Kingswood. Think we'll stick with 29th as itll allow our members currently in the 3 counties to also attend

    Fantastic work space, didn’t think you had a chance ðŸ‘
    And what a result, Gowran park is a gorgeous course, will pleasantly surprise anyone who hasn’t played it before

    Thanks captain for the hard work and find an alternative to the cancelled outing. Just accepted in Teamer


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,392 ✭✭✭spacecoyote


    Hi All,

    just an update, that we're currently at 30 accepted for the event. We have slots for 33, so if you're planning on making the trip, it might be advisable for you to accept ASAP.

    Also, we're already late in to the day teeing off, but if people have preferences on tee time, please post them in here and I'll try my best to accommodate.

    I won't post the actual timesheet till closer to the date.

    No problem. Accept there on Teamer will ya Benny, didn't have you on the list as you hadnt responded.

    Generally All, there are a few non responses from some regulars, if you accepted Portarlington, but haven't accepted this one, you're not included on the list currently, as there was a separate Teamer invite sent


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,902 ✭✭✭RoadRunner


    It becoming clearer that I won't be able to make this one :( Cancelled on teamer just now.

  • Registered Users Posts: 776 ✭✭✭Kingswood Rover
