The Munster Senior Open will take place between the 9th-18th June.  As many of you know, the event is one of the biggest club events of the year and so we need a lot of help with it.  So if you have a couple of hours to give over the ten days to help with the office, photos, umpiring etc please do get involved by telling us your preferred times and tasks are at the link above.  We will do our best to suit these preferences where we can. All members are welcome to help, whether they have been involved in previous years or not.
