On the 15th May the club had their end of year mass in Milltown, members put
together some songs, readings and prayers of the faithful. Many thanks to Fr.
Dan for all his assistance and for a lovely ceremony, also thank you to
those to attended that evening.
It was straight back to work, on the 16th May twelve of us headed off to the
Tullamore Court Hotel for the Citizenship Regional Event. There were four
regional events held in Ireland in May and out of that 20 groups will be
picked for the Citizenship Awards 2009. There was tough competition in
Tullamore with 23 clubs from Meath, Offaly, Roscommon & Cavan with their
projects on display. Sharon Brady & Emma Brady took on the challenge to wow
the judges in the interview. Niamh Reilly & Grace Monaghan accepted a
certificate on behalf on the club as recognition of our project and Linda
McGurren took to the stage to tell everyone about our project. At all times
members were at the display boards which they put together and explained the
project to other clubs and to invited guests.
A great day was had and congratulations to the members who came along that
day and represented the club so well. Only four or five groups will go
through from our event and we are still awaiting the result, we will keep
you posted!!
