The article below was partly published in the
local weekly newspaper 'The Sun' promoting
Brooklyn club and also their new policy of
being a sun smart club. The paper included a
photo of three club members wearing the new
shirts. Great publicity and it was all free! I've
attached a photo of some of our members who
turned up one afternoon for a photo shoot most
of whom were wearing the shirts. 90% of
members have purchased these new shirts and
most playing days our greens are a sea of blue.
