Last year I did a half marathon and pledged never to go through that sort of thing again. However, as the Mother’s Union celebrates 140 years I stupidly hatched the plan to play 140 holes of golf in one week. That’s a lot of golf and walking and searching for balls. During the summer I like to play a couple of times a week. Each round is 18 holes. In order to reach my target, I will need to play more than one round a day especially as I plan to leave Sunday as a day of rest and worship.
I will do this W/C June 6th and will mainly be playing at my home course Greetham Valley golf club. I want to make it fun so would love it if people want to walk round with me or ride in style in buggies that can be hired. You can then enjoy a drink and or/ meal in the clubhouse while I flog round!!
If you feel able to support financially I have set up a Justgiving site which is easy to use and sorts out gift aid. If you prefer I have a sponsorship form (click here to download). Any cheques should be made payable to “The Mothers’ Union Uppingham branch.” All funds raised will go towards the work of MU overseas.
The Justgiving site is www.justgiving.com/Jill-Cannings3
Please humour me with lots of encouraging smiles and pray for good weather.
