Annual General Meeting: The club AGM has been set for Friday, November 23rd at 8pm sharp in the Complex.

Management: The club are now seeking nominations from club members for the following team management positions: Senior, B, C and Under-21. Club members are requested to submit their nominations in writing to club secretary Michael McMahon by 12 noon on Friday, November 16th 2012. Consent should be received from prospective nominees before their name is submitted. Thanks to the outgoing management teams for their hard work and dedication during their terms of office.

For Club and County: This Saturday night sees the County Monaghan premiere of the play “For Club and County”, written and directed by former Leitrim footballer Seamus O’Rourke, in the Complex at Scotstown. The story begins just two weeks before the county final and Matt “the Maestro”, manager of Tanaree’s senior football side, is determined to end the club’s 23-year run of bad form. Their hopes are dashed though, as their dual football and hurling star Ritchie Brown busts his knee dipping sheep. But, has Richie’s girlfriend, the wily Jenny, found the answer in Arthur Polanski – who just happens to be the spit of Ritchie Brown? Just because he’s not a member of the country, let alone the club, doesn’t mean he can’t play in the final. And he doesn’t have to speak English – he just has to talk GAA! “For Club and County” is a Moth Production, in association with the GAA Social Initiative and ASAP programme, sponsored by Calor. Tickets are €10 and will be available from any committee member or at the door on the night. Show starts at 8:30pm sharp.
