Upcoming Events
Friday 22nd March:
The 2019 Daffodil Day Quiz
This quiz is for the Irish Cancer Society. This is the 13th year in a row that Tommy O’ Friel and Pat Brennan have held this ever popular quiz.
All the proceeds on the night go to the Irish Cancer Society which is a very worthy cause and coincides with Daffodil Day. Cancer unfortunately is experienced in almost every family and the Irish Cancer Society do fantastic work. However, they depend on volunteers and charitable donations from kind-hearted people to keep going. By supporting this Table Quiz, is one way of helping. It is always a very enjoyable night. Delighted if you could take part in this table quiz.
Sunday 24th March:
Feile Race Night
We are kicking off the Annual Féile Race Night at 5pm. There will finger food served at 6pm so patrons are asked to respect this and not bring any food or drink onto the premises. This years Féile brochure is a bumper edition and features some of our club's most recognised faces recalling when they played Féile for the club. It's sure to be a great evening so please come and support the night. Dennis Carr & Niall Dalton will be on hand to provide the commentary.

Healthy Clubs
Pictured here are a group of amateur runners reaping the rewards of St. Oliver Plunkett Eoghan Ruadh Healthy Clubs Project. This group (and more) took part in our 2018 Operation Transformation Programme. From there a running group developed who continued to run twice a week throughout the year.
This year, those pictured signed up to the Lord Mayor 5 alive challenge. On Monday they completed the 4th of 5 races, running the St Patrick's Festival 5k through the streets of Dublin. The majority of this group were strangers to each other before Jan 2018. Now, that's a Healthy Clubs Project success!
