St. Macartan’s College Gala Ball – In 2013 St. Macartan’s College are celebrating 100 years of Gaelic Games in the college. To mark this milestone the college is inviting all past pupils to join them at a special Centenary Gala Ball on Saturday February 16th in the Hillgrove Hotel for a reunion of past pupils and teachers for what promises to be a night to be remembered. Within our club there are many past pupils and this is a unique opportunity for them to support their ‘alma mater’. All proceeds will go to the redevelopment of the ‘’bottom pitch’’. For details on how to book tickets or to assist in the organisation of a table for this unique event please contact Raymond Leonard or the school office @ 047-81642
Come Dine At Mine – is Eire Og’s version of the TV programme Come Dine with Me – with a fundraising twist! If you’re already a fan of the show, you know the drill. But for those of you who don’t know what we’re talking about, the idea is simple: Just invite a few of your friends over for a dinner party, asking each friend for a €15 donation, enjoy a lovely meal with excellent company, and have fun raising money for the club. Finally, once the fine dining has finished, all are welcome back back to the Skule Inn, hosts, guests and those who have not dined with us, everyone can come.
This night of food and fun will take place on Saturday the 9th February. If you are interested in hosting or have any queries about the event, then please contact Ciaran Leonard 087 6296425, Colin Casey 086 4055385 or Padraig McKenna 087 7874044.
