Summer Party 16th July, 2008

Summer might not be an apt description so far as the weather is concerned but
summer portrays the atmosphere at the party held in Ballykealey Manor Hotel.

Isn't it great when something starts on time, finishes on time and gives a good time?
The committee wishes to thank all who helped with the organising and those who
gave the raffle prizes. To Pat Birmingham and Jacky Byrne for the music and song
and Jim Nolan for the recitations.
Thanks also to the hotel for prompt service and a well cooked meal.

Summer Outing 18th June, 2008

The Committee are to be congratulated for putting on another great day starting
with the focal point of Belvedere House, Gardens and Park,
a shopping trip in Tullamore and an evening meal in the Killeshin Hotel.
All was well organised except for the weather which must have been
the heaviest rainfall this year.
