Club Notes -12th February 2017

Come Dine with Me’

The club is seeking hosts for a Come Dine with Me event which will happen on 25th February. The response to date is very encouraging and is seen as a fun way to engage socially. This involves hosts inviting friends to their house for a meal for which they contribute €25 each. Proceeds go to the club development fund. Following the meal, transport will be provided to and from Catherine Troy’s pub for musical and other entertainment. If interested, please contact Dermot Horan on 087-6887076 or through Facebook/Twitter. See website for more information.

Website

Our new website  www.drumcullengaa.com was launched on 1st February and is well worth a visit. The site will be added to as time passes and we welcome comments, stories and photographs which may be of interest. We are grateful to all those who contributed but especially to Fiona Darcy who committed great skill and endless hours to its creation and without whom it would not have happened. We are very appreciative and indebted to Fiona for her generosity and contribution to the project.
