WOLDMARSH/LRSN GOLF DAY 2018

A bright sunny day in May saw 21 teams take part in what was a very enjoyable golf day at Waltham Windmill Golf Club. It turned out to be the most successful yet, raising approximately £7,500 for LRSN to enable them to continue to support people in the rural community in Lincolnshire. This is a tremendous amount and raising this amount of money would not be possible without the continued support of our members and sponsors.

PHAE BRYANT Phae Bryant joined the team in May 2018 in the role of events and marketing assistant, having spent a number of years working for a firm of Chartered Surveyors. Members thoroughly enjoyed the very informative talks given about the grass drying, horse feed and chlorophyll businesses at Blankney Estates followed by a pie and pea supper.

MAX FORMAN Over recent weeks Max has spent a great deal of time thinking about his future and what experiences are to be found from taking time out to go travelling the world. While it is with regret that we have accepted Max’s resignation it is with an equal measure of sincerity that we wish him “bon voyage” in the hope he will have the most wonderful time in the months to come. Although Max has not been with Woldmarsh for a long time it’s been enough for him to be well liked by the team, our suppliers and the members. We hope that Max will keep us updated on his travels periodically.
