2015 KMGC Easter Eggstravaganza - Easter Sunday - Bluewater

The second of the seasons KMGC 'Majors' is just under 2 weeks away!!

Yes it's that time of the year again - and you are all cordially invited to the KMGC Easter Eggstravaganza - Easter Sunday 5th April at the now traditional EE venue, the Pirate Cove in Bluewater (taking place for a fifth year running)!

3 rounds of strokeplay (once again all on the Smugglers Course) and as the main Bluewater Shopping centre is actually closed (the one day of the year!) it's probably going to be relatively quiet again (a marked contrast to most courses in the South East if the sun is out).

I’m waiting to confirm opening and start times but will probably be looking at an 11am start which should give everyone ample time to get to the course - and as always it promises to be a great way to spend Easter Sunday.

Let me know if you fancy it (friends and family and even non KMGC minigolfers also welcome) - and hopefully we will see you all at the Pirate Cove in April (for a festivity of minigolf, larks and maybe even a spot of chocolate thrown in as well).

All the best,

Sean.

VTK!

Scourge of the earth...

KMGC EE update:

Although the course is not currently part of the BMGA tour we have managed to secure the day rate going forward for Tour Pros. The course has increased their prices for the season and have put up the dayrate to £15 accordingly but still represents good value for us (just make sure you bring your2015 Tour Pro card with you).

The course will be open from 10am and we'll be looking at an 11am start which should give everyone ample time to get to the course - and as always it promises to be a great way to spend Easter Sunday.

Forecast for Sunday looks pretty good...

A great day had by all - thanks to all who attended!!! See you again next year!

VTK!

Well done Adam, a fine win under a bit of late pressure from FB.
Thanks to Sean & Marion for the usual impeccable org, even got a bit of much needed sun too. Blue water's a fine course & a few of us found it can bite when you lose concentration, great stuff!
Nice to see everyone again, Matty & myself had a good day & look forward to playing again soon.

A great day, well done Adam, very solid. Thanks to Sean and Marion for organising. Brian, Phil and Camille all enjoyed it and I think we have more people hooked.

Some interesting hole stats, surprised at more aces on H4 than 3, I think everyone else was scared of over hitting the tee shot like myself. In practice they were close or in, in the comp I was painfully short every time. Built in bottle.
