Club News

February being the month of love, Chapman ladies section hosted a successful mixed golf fundraising tournament on the 13th of february in celebration of Valentine’s day. The day was filled with lots of fun and activites which included a raffle draw, cake sales among others whilst the club house was filled with sweet music from the Disco guys. A big applause to Mrs Brandt and her team for organising such a wonderful day.

Valentine’s Day mixed golf registration desk was all in red.

On the 27th of February, we are going to host another live music night; the first one was a nice experience having live music while enjoying ice cold beers and drinks in the Main Bar. For those who missed the performance, make sure you keep checking our website and facebook page (details at the bottom of this Issue) for more information about activities taking place at the club.
