July is the time for the Annual Evans Transport Golf day!

Nine teams of 4 players did battle over the oldest Links in England. Royal North Devon Golf Club is 160 years old this year and were delighted as always to host our day. Most of us kept dry-ish on the fantastic course which is looking great as always.

The individual winner was Ryan Freeman from Atlas packaging helped along by a fantastic Eagle on the 13th hole, and Ryan was also in the winning team (above). He played with Matt Gosling from Maen Karne, Dan Battershall from Scania GB  and Les Webster who is retired from Evans Transport .

The second place team included Ian Binding from Harris and Harris Construction Richard Hughes from Gingerweb, Scott Cocks from Adams Morey and Kevin Wills from Stuart's Truck and Bus.

After an excellent meal Tom Evans precided over a Charity Auction with all proceeds going to The North Devon Hospice all the items auctioned were donated by those present and exactly £2000 was raised and donated.
