Brigg Town Mayor Coun Brian Parker has now provided a new golf trophy to be competed for annually to raise money for local worthy causes through the Mayor's Appeal Fund.
Coun Parker is pictured here with the cup (sourced from a local supplier) prior to last night's meeting of Brigg Town Council when it was on display to fellow councillors, staff and members of the public.
He informed Brigg Blog that hundreds of pounds will be raised at the initial Town Mayor's tournament arranged for Friday, July 22 at Elsham Golf Club.
Twelve teams have signed up, meaning that 48 golfers will take to the course from mid-day.
Arrangements have been made to photograph the launch event, and Brigg Blog will be sharing some of the images with our followers in due course.
Presentations will follow the players tucking into pie & peas with chips at what is known as the 19th hole (the clubhouse).
The Mayor's Appeal Fund in 2022/23 will help Lindsey Lodge Hospice and MND.
It is intended that future Town Mayors will host charity golf days in support of their chosen worthy causes.
Coun Parker's two-year spell as our town's first citizen will conclude in May 2023.
