Woolsack sponsors winning Young Photographer
Josh Main won the club’s competition for ‘Young Photographer of the Year 2013’ and he went on to win the District 1250 Award and is now competing at National level for the RIBI Award.
Charity Golf Day 2103 a Great Success.
This year was Woolsack’s 10th annual charity golf day and once again we held it at the beautiful West Surrey Golf Course. In great contrast with last year, the weather was excellent with blue skies all day and a light breeze. Twenty-two teams of four battled for the Woolsack Trophy and the worthy winners were the Charles Stanley team, under the name ‘All The Gear, No Idea’. They clearly had a very good idea!
Visit to Holland
Club members and partners enjoyed a weekend of great hospitality and fellowship with members of the Goeree-Overflakkee club in April.
Cath Lovell awarded Paul Harris Fellowship
Over many years, Club member Cath Lovell has worked for charitable organisations in the Godalming community, such as Go Godalming, The Denningberg Centre, The Clockhouse (Milford & Villages Day Centre). She helped develop and run the country’s first town lottery, GOLO, and she remains a hard working Rotarian, always putting service before self. Cath Lovell has become the Club’s latest Paul Harris Fellow.
Success with Young Writer Competition
For the second year our New Generations Committee has organised a Young Writer competition for local schools. The entrants were required to write a letter to anyone of their choice using a theme of “Peace”. We received 53 entries from The Chandler School in Witley and Rodborough College of Technology in Milford and they covered entries in Junior, Intermediate and Senior age categories.
We are delighted to learn that two of our club winners, Izzy from Chandler School and Emma from Rodborough have won their age groups in the District competition. Their entries have been submitted to the RIBI national competition and we wish them every success.
