The Gary Hart Memorial Trophy
9 holes at Falkland Golf Club
Tuesday July 31st 2012 - 6pm
Pairs event - shotgun start
Earlier in 2012, Gary, a friend of St. Andrews Golf Groups, suddenly passed away in Western Australia.
Having spoken to Garys family in Leeds, Yorkshire, they have agreed that we can hold an annual event in memory of Gary.
For those who knew Gary, either in the real world, or via Facebook,
knew him as a man that enjoyed a bit of fun and frolics, and was the
life and soul of the party.
Gary would have loved the Barbeque and beer we will be partaking in, I'm sure he will be smiling down on us from the fairways of heaven.
The event has been organised around the Facebook Community Golf Open, so that a lot of Garys friends who are attending can take part and celebrate Garys life.
Transport has been organised from St. Andrews, departing at 4.45pm and will leave Falkland at 11pm so that everyone can enjoy a beer or 2.. or 3!
Entry is £20 per person which will include Barbeque
Cost of Transport from St. Andrews is £10 per person and will leave at 5pm
Falkland Golf Club members will be £10 per person.
If you would like to participate, please email golfgroups@aol.com
Falkland Golf Club is a wonderful 9 hole ''community golf course'' 20 miles from the Home of Golf, where a warm welcome is always assured, Gary had always said he would have loved to play here.

The chosen Charity for the event
All funds raised through this evening will be going to Simon Buckden, an ex-soldier who was forced to leave the Army
due to suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
In order to raise
awareness of PTSD Simon came up with the mad idea to run 100 marathons in 100 weeks!
While doing this, Simon himself has found out that he has got cancer, but is still continuing with this incredible challenge. Read more here www.raceto100.co.uk/
