Thankfully ‘rain did not stop play’ on 17th June, and CSRC’s Annual Ladies’ Fun Tennis Tournament and Lunch fundraising event proved to be a grand slam, raising £1,500!
By kind invitation of Mr & Mrs Richard Morris, this year’s event was held at Willington Lodge, Whitchurch and surrounding tennis courts. Willington Lodge provided the ideal setting, made even more spectacular as we were gifted the use of a wedding marquee which was draped in beautiful flower arrangements.
We are extremely grateful to Mr & Mr Morris for allowing us to use the marque, and for raffling off the flower arrangements to contribute £370 to the total.
Thank you also to Gail Legget and Sally Anson from the CSRC Fundraising Committee who aced the lunch, serving up a delicious lunch, followed by delightful puddings made by the volunteers of Hanmer Church that would give the Wimbledon strawberries a run for their money!
If watching Wimbledon rekindles your tennis prowess, then come and join us next year...
