BADCASS TREASURE HUNT - SUMMER 2007
This year Davis Green collaborated with BADCASS to organise a treasure hunt for studying accountants from a variety of firms in and around Bristol . A group of 15 accountants met with four Davis Green consultants to commence the hunt around Clifton village. With pit –stops at local pubs scheduled along the trail, teams of four scattered to complete the quiz and to collect a number of items or ‘treasure' on their way. The questions ranged from the blinding obvious to some more tricky requiring expert detective work.
Some more successful than others, the teams completed the trail and re-grouped in the Clifton Wine Bar, where the winning team was presented with a bottle of Champagne to reward their efforts. All participants, accountants and consultants, thoroughly enjoyed this day of many laughs and good conversation, and agreed that the event should be repeated next year.

ROTARY CLUB GOLF NIGHT - 9TH MARCH
The Rotary Club of Somer Valley held a fundraising Golf Night on 9 March to raise funds for the Rotary charity fund, which supports local charities in the Bath area as well as national and international disaster relief projects.
PART OF THE DAVIS GREEN TEAM ON THE 1ST TEE
The Rotary Club supports a number of local schools by sponsoring pupils on exchange visits, residential opportunities for developing confidence and interpersonal skills and the annual ‘Kids Day Out' to Longleat for younger pupils who do not have family holidays. Vision Bath , a local charity offering a wide range of services to anyone with sight loss in the Bath and North East Somerset area, is also supported by Somer Valley Rotary Club. The Golf Night was an opportunity to raise awareness of these projects and raise much-needed funds to continue its support.
“Thank you to the six Davis Green consultants who took part in our charity golf night, which raised £1667. It will be an annual event, so we hope to see you again next year.”
Wendy Simmons, Rotary Club member and member of the fund raising committee which organised the Golf Night event.
