Tidings April 2020

Hello everyone,

Dear members of Whitstable and Seasalter Golf Club,

I am writing this message to you in the hope that it finds you all fit and well in these strange and unsettling times that we all find ourselves in. It is hard isn’t it and completely alien to us all, as we are by the nature of the beast that is a golfer, very sociable creatures. We are now being asked to socially distance ourselves from people who are not usually members of our households which I am afraid pretty much rules out members of the golf club, unless of course you already live with another member!

I suspect many of you, like myself, have been finding jobs around the house that need attention. I have to say my sheds have never been so tidy and I have pressure washed patio and paths within an inch of their lives and Sue is getting very jumpy each morning when I look around for the next project………

To those of you who continue to work in essential services, I would like to say ‘thank you’ on behalf of us all. It would seem appropriate at this time to include Steve and Seth our two greenkeepers, in my thanks for their continued dedication to the course, thus looking after this precious asset for us all.

We currently find ourselves in an unimaginable period in the Club’s history. We the Directors, are trying to do our best for the Club and whilst we appreciate the hardship and injustice of the situation forced upon us all by the advent of Covid19, we do need your help. I personally want to take this opportunity to say thank you to those members who have already demonstrated their continued support to the club by contacting the office and paying their annual subscriptions for the coming season.

I just want to say a heartfelt ‘take care’ to you all from Sue and I and look forward to seeing you all again as soon as we are allowed to resume our Golf Club activities.

See you next time.

John
