STUART HUTCHISON MEMORIAL CALENDAR - Appeal to help fundraising project for The Golf Foundation

The undernoted appeal was received via e-mail and has been forwarded to clubs.

We are sure if individuals or other golfing bodies would like to support the project then the organisers would be happy to hear from them.

STUART HUTCHISON MEMORIAL CALENDAR
PROCEEDS TO GO TO THE GOLF FOUNDATION

FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF GOLF IN YOUNG PEOPLE IN SCOTLAND

Stuart Hutchison was an assistant professional golfer who had just completed his first year training with the PGA when tragically he was involved in a fatal traffic accident at the end of September 2009. At his funeral a collection was made for The Golf Foundation and his family and friends intend to continue this fund raising with charity runs and this years major project is the publication of a memorial golf calendar.

The calendar will feature photos of some of his family, friends and fellow assistant professionals (as well as Stuart’s professional Stu Pardoe who was his mentor and best friend) taking golf shots on a variety of golf courses around the UK and Ireland.

In order to help us estimate the number of calendars to be printed (and so maximise money raised) we are asking all golf clubs in Scotland to commit to selling 10 calendars per club. It is hoped to have the calendar ready for sale some time in September 2010 when golfers are still regularly playing and early enough to catch the Christmas market.

If your club is willing to help us with this would you please email at the following email address, stating name of club and number of calendars required :-

With many thanks
David, Isobel and Lorna Hutchison
