Birdie Boys – St Pierre Charity Day

Sunday, 1st September 2024

Caldicot Male Voice Choir’s associated golf society the ‘Birdie Boys’, gathered on the 1st September at St. Pierre Golf Club for their annual Charity event.

The 2024 Charity aim was to raise donations to support St. David’s Hospice, a local charity that supports end of life care.
Twenty-one golfers from the choir and friends, tee’d up on the Mathern Course for a fun Texas Scramble on a nice sunny day, which lasted a couple of hours before the round was completed in heavy rain and thunderstorms. A very close and competitive game was had with only five shots difference between all six teams.

The after-event dinner was held at the Indian Empire restaurant, where the golfers tucked into some lovely dishes washed down with Indian beer.
A total of £225 was raised for the charity which will be added to previous events run by the choir’s cycling and walking clubs, bringing a total to around £1700.
