2004 was the clubs Centenary year and all the members were determined to
make it a year to remember. There were a number of extra social events – all sold out, and
many extra and varied golf events – all again fully subsidised.
The highlights of these were twofold:
The Centenary week when our friends from Kinsale visited for four days and
enjoyed a “Ryder Cup” and “Solheim Cup” competition – both, surprisingly, ‘honourable halves’!
The evening social events were largely popular and successful and the week culminated in a
Centenary Ball at the Brangwyn Hall attended by 440 with a waiting list eager to join the
celebrations.
The visit of Prince Andrew to the club in November was an event the whole
club should be proud of. HRH thoroughly enjoyed his visit, mixing socially with many members
and thoroughly enjoying the good food provided by our ever efficient stewardess, Ann.
