Tee off for the GIMA Golf Day and raise money for charity


Members of the gardening trade are working on their swings for the GIMA golf day at Staverton Park in Daventry, Northants, on June 6...and there's still time to enter a team and raise money for great causes...

The GIMA Charity Golf Day is a proven way to: mix with your customers in a relaxed manner; build commitment with your own team; and get your business name and brands in front of your industry. And money raised from the event goes to Gardening Leave and Greenfingers.

There are three ways you can get involved even if you don't play golf. You can: offer your support by providing a raffle prize; take up a sponsorship opportunity; and book a table and enjoy an evening of entertainment and good company.

The day's events start from from 10.30am when bacon sandwiches and hot
drinks will be served in the Club House. There will be two tee starts between 11.30am and 1.00pm. Golfers will be completing their rounds from approx. 3.30pm-6.00pm.

You can have a crack at “Challenge the Pro” on a par 3 hole where golfers will be invited to pay £5/head. Prizes of a FREE round of golf for 4 if you can beat the Pro will be up fro grabs.

After you have played golf or for those of you who don’t want to play, you can enjoy complimentary access to the pool, steam room, sauna and Jacuzzi.

Around 6pm you can join colleagues in the bar for the evening of fun and relax with a drink or two and talk about the day's events and how close you were to that hole in one!

In the evening, starting at 7.15pm there will be an evening meal, prize giving, raffle and charity auction.

To Play - Enter your 4 ball golf team for only £400. This includes golf, breakfast, practice range, evening and use of leisure club.

To Stay - Overnight Bed & Breakfast basis is at GIMA rate of £80.00/head.
