On Saturday September 29th while 17 people walked and completed the Drishane castle loop 60 others climbed Clara mountain to raise funds for our G.A.A. club and the Mercy hospital.
We are still collecting sponsorship cards but to date 1212 euro has been collected which is a fantastic amount in these difficult times.
A huge thank you goes out to each and everyone of you young and old who took part in this great event and thank you also to Thomas Duggan for allowing us to use Drishane.
On our return light refreshments were served in our local G.A.A. hall much to the delight of the walkers.
Many thanks again -Carmel Walsh.
