What a fantastic day was had by our new Captain Mr. Chris Gleave on Saturday 25th March.
Not only did he......
- Have tremendous weather for the day
- Get in the prizes with his partner, Vice Captain Dave Harrison (but sadly have to relinquish, as he can't win his own competion:))
- Enjoy a wonderful breakfast with his friends and board members
- Have a tremendous party night with the room packed with members, guests, friends and neighbours of the club
- Raise £200 for his Charity, The Manchester Children's Hospital, a full three weeks before the grand raffle draw.
He actually hit what is probably the longest and straightest inaugural drive in the history of the club! His shot travelling a full 300 yards to the top of the bowl on the 1st fairway. Thus dashing the hopes of all those members who predited little better than a strong hook out in to the Out of Bounds to the left in the annual sweep to predict the finishing point of his drive.
Well done Chris!!
The picture shows the Captain to the left and Junior Captain James Mathews to the right, joined by the incumbent President Mark Leigh.
The President takes the opportunity to muscle in with the only two members who are actually shorter than he. The frame of the picture masks the boxes on which Junior Captain and Captain are stood.
The other pictures show the tremendous drives they both hit.

Charity Night 2011
Dear Members & Friends
On the 29th October 2011 we had The Captains Charity Day and it was decided to donate the proceeds between The Lymphoma Support Group Bury and The Christies Cancer Research, both of which are very close to our hearts.
The response was absolutely tremendous, thanks to the support of our golf members, families, friends and lots of other sponsors who donated items for the raffle and auctions.
The evening was a fantastic Halloween fancy dress theme with a DJ that lightened the mood and got everyone dancing nice and early.
Sandra, Carmel and their staff did a great job on the night with the food and bar.
This letter is to let everyone know we realised in total the fabulous amount of £6,216.00.
Thanks again to everyone and hope these charities go from strength to strength.
Yours Sincerely
Ray Deacon
Captain Brookdale Golf Club

Stop Press 10th August. Fantastic article in the 9th August edition of the Manchester Evening News. See / open attachment below marked "George Glass Article"
Click on blue title text and page down to see a gallery of wonderful pictures.
Brookdale Golf Club was delighted to host a celebration of VJ Day and a tribute to the life of our much loved and respected former secretary George Glass and his wife Gladys.
The day was a tremendous success, with fantastic 1940's period be entertainment, 1940's vehicles, costumes and food.
Our very special guest was Sergeant George Glass and his good lady Gladys.
Vice Captain Chris Gleave hosted and arranged the day and told the incredible and inspiring tale of Sergeant Glass, how Professor Cruickshank twice saved his life and rescued him from the the Burma railway, his 3 and a half years in the Japanese PoW camps, how they met up after the war, the Professor's life as a world renown specialist in tropical disease and George as a member for over 50 years and another 20 odd years as secretary!
The club house was packed with all ages from 9 months to 97 years!
See below and click on the images to see a library of pictures from one of the most wonderful, inspiring and emotional days seen at Brookdale Golf Club in many a long year.
Many thanks from everyone who attended to Chris Gleave who did a tremendous job and congratulations to George and Gladys.
