Ogwell Tennis & Social Club Annual Barbecue.

On Saturday 11th July, 53 brave souls, stalwarts of the community, donned wellies & waterproofs to attend our annual barbecue. Though occasionally the heavens opened & the rain came down, we were kept dry in our ‘tented village’ created in the garden of Ogwell Mill. Grateful thanks go to Caroline & Jamie for offering us the use of such beautiful surroundings. Hot food was eaten & beer was drunk in cosy settings, complimented by candlelight & pretty posey decorated tables. Gentlemen stood round the fire telling tales of days gone by, & the beer barrel went down. The Ladies of the village triumphed in the salads they produced, & their luxurious, sumptuous deserts left one with tingling sensations & ‘will I be seen going back for more’ feelings. Our many thanks to all who helped organise, set-up & dismantle, whose names are too many to mention. It is really a pleasure to see how a village comes together.

Saturday 9th May 2009 Golf Day at Stover
Toby lifts the golf trophy (again) while the ladies do a spot of fishing!!

Toby Strick lifted the OTC shield (37 points off a handicap of 20) for the second year running. Rob Thomas was second. Not to be outdone, the ladies even fitted in a spot of fishing before carrying off the majority of the prizes: Glynn Harrison was the first lady (Karen Major was second) and with Sally Spokes won the ‘nearest the pin’ competition.
Competitors, partners and fellow Club members finally rounded off an excellent day with a tasty meal at the 19th hole. Our thanks go to Don for the organisation of the popular this annual event.
