Photos from Annual Mass
Annual Mass 2015
We were extremely fortunate on Thursday night as the weather was just perfect for the Mass. There was a large crowd present and everything went off well. We would like to thank all those who assisted us in any way to organise and marshal the event. We would especially like to thank all the priests and those who performed the readings and the singing . Thanks also to Eoin Stack for providing a shuttle bus service and thanks to those who availed of this bus or who walked down to the graveyard. This freed up valuable space at the cemetery which prevented congestion and allowed all those who had no option but to drive down an opportunity to park close to the cemetery.

Cutting of April 9 2015
The disappointment of
having to cancel our first proposed cutting night in Holy Week due to the poor
weather was very much offset last night by the fabulous weather that we
have been having all week. There was a heavy crop of grass but as always, we
had plenty of willing workers and the weather made it a pleasure to be out in. Most of the regulars were there and we also had
a few new people who took to their task very enthusiastically. Thanks to all for their work on the
night and for all the work that they have done in the past.
The next cutting will
take place on Thursday night April 23rd from 5.30 onwards and any
assistance would be appreciated.
