Thanks must go to all the President's supporters on the day, including the ladies in the Millenium Hut providing excellent hospitalilty, the catering and greens staff for their long and intensive day, Brian Baggaley and Roy Morris for photography and general support and advice, and Andy Baxter & Stewart Townsend for their time spent checking each and every card for accuracy and compiling the complicated list of winners and prize recipients. Acknowledgment must also be given to Fred and Jake for their unstinting support from the Professional's shop.          

Most of all though, huge thanks to the President for his efforts in making this a very special occasion. His generosity and hard work was the key to a great day.
