Club Notes – 5th February 2017
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 indebted 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 truly grateful.
Liam Lyons Academy
U6/8s back in the Rath Hall on Tuesday 14th from 6.30pm while u10/12s come back on Thursday 16th. Texts will be sent to all parents. A new nursery programme, in co-operation with the camogie club, for 4/5-year-old will begin on Saturday 18th at 11am also in the hall introducing the children to hurling via the Damien Young model: Goals + Goals = Fun Fun Fun. Note from the school will sent to all parents.
Adult Hurling
We welcome Adrian Clancy, St. Rynaghs, as coach for 2017 and we wish him and the players the best of luck in the year ahead. Training commences on Tuesday and again on Saturday from 4pm.
‘Come Dine with Me’
The club is seeking hosts for a Come Dine with Me event which will happen on 25th February. 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.

Club Development Plan.
The club has applied to for grant aid towards the various projects at our grounds and we will not have a response until later this year. A condition of the application is that none of the work should commence until that decision is made.
