Imagine how beautiful the Dorset Countryside will look with the sun glistening on the dewy hedgerows and the reflectors of bicycles as they make their way around the roads and lanes.

Once again it's time for you and your friends to enjoy the Dorset Wooden Spoon's Regional Golf Day this time at The Canford Magna Golf Club on Wednesday 4th September 2013 .
