Buiochas:

Thanks to the lads and ladies who helped out with the work at Pairc Eamonn de Paor last Saturday. Coleman O Flynn aka Chuck was running the operation and all went well. Special word of thanks to Pat Hogan who dug out the bases and to Michael O Keefe who provided a tractor and trailer. It is hoped to have the new dugouts, supplied by Goalpost Ireland, in place within a couple of weeks. We have a lot more to do but at least we have made a start.

We wish our club treasurer Mairead who has been in hospital a speedy recovery.
