The Longest 18 Holes
On Monday 22nd June 2009, Luke Parry and Paul Rockett of Milestone and Graham Russell and Steve Saunders of Alno, will attempt to play 18 holes of golf in one day stretching from Kent to the most western tip of Cornwall, in aid of two charities close to their hearts – Friends of PICU and CHASE Hospice Care for Children.
Their route will take them through 8 counties, travelling in excess of 400 miles and will last over 17 hours!
They will attempt to play two holes at each of the following venues who have generously agreed to help them in their challenge:
- The London Club, Kent
- RAC Woodcote Park, Surrey
- Mannings Heath, Sussex
- Cams Hall, Hampshire
- Ferndown, Dorset
- Taunton & Pickeridge, Somerset
- Woodbury Park, Devon
- Trevose, Cornwall
- Cape Cornwall, Cornwall
The Longest 18 holers are aiming to raise £5,000 for each of the two charities, and therefore your help and support would be greatly appreciated.
