OCTOBER 2019: ISSUE 126


Fellow Members, As our summer events were winding down, September was a month of consolidation and preparation for the winter months ahead. Our main fundraising event in October is the Kingsbarns Competition that accounts for over half of our fundraising efforts. We have a full field and raffle tickets were drawn at our first meeting in October 1st. Although we did not get a main sponsor, we received a generous personal donation of £250 from one of my business friends. I am pleased to report that the club has yet again won the Mounted Wheel for the best Club Bulletin in the District. As you will be aware from our website and Facebook pages, Grace

picked up the award at the recent District Council Meeting in Perth. We have now won this award 6 times in the last 8 years, so perhaps we should be allowed to keep it! Klips is an important part of our evolving communicat ions strategy which includes press and social media. We have made greater use of video clips to promote Kingsbarns and other events. In addition to Kingsbarns, preparatory work is wel l underway for fundraising, community and social events up to Christmas. We will be undertaking a walking tour of St Andrews followed by a meal on October 22nd and Forgans is booked for the 14th December for our Christmas meal. In terms of service/community activities preparations are in hand for our Quiz night in the N ew C l u b o n t h e 2 7 t h November, carol singing in the Care Homes in St Andrews in December and a second Kids


Day Out at the Mother Goose Pantomime at the Byre Theatre.
