David
Logan joined Turnberry Golf Club in 1961, he was nominated for Committee at the
AGM on 31st March 1973. David was Captain from 1980 to 1982.
Throughout
the time since David was Captain he has offered many members and Captains his
support and wise counsel, based on his wealth of knowledge and a deep passion
for the Club. David is a keen supporter of all the events on the Turnberry Golf
Club calendar in particular and of note is the Club Championship week where
David is a regular presence on the 1st Tee to see the players off,
encouraging them to play well. He is also invariably in attendance on final’s
day itself, irrespective of the weather.
David
has earned the respect of many members and office bearers over the past 50
years, his warmth of personality and genuine fondness for Turnberry Golf Club
is hugely admired. His help and support is greatly appreciated throughout the
Club, his enthusiasm and passion for all things Turnberry is exemplary. He is
also very highly respected by the Hotel owners and management where his
knowledge and professional approach is valued.
Everyone
who knows David appreciates that he is a Past Captain and Honorary Member who
has given exceptional service to Turnberry Golf Club for over 50 years during
which he has demonstrated all the virtues expected of someone holding the
position of Honorary President of Turnberry Golf Club.
David
often regales his many and varied stories about some of the former members and
characters he has encountered over the years. He was also actively involved in
events like Pro Celebrity Golf, The Open Championships and many other golf competitions
which have been hosted at Turnberry. His knowledge of the History of Turnberry
Golf Club is encyclopaedic.
It
was fitting that the honour was conferred on David almost exactly 50 years to
the day since he first joined Committee.
The Ayrshire Golf Association congratulate David on this well deserved honour.
