Poker Classic:  The club would like to thank everyone who came up to support the Annual Poker classic last Sunday night. We appreciate the effort everyone went through to be there. Thanks to anyone who volunteered to help out on the night and to everyone who was involved in the running of the night to make it a success.

Fundraising: The club will be holding its annual Church gate collection on the weekend of 12/13th of November. Anybody willing to volunteer can contact Catherine Nevin, Joe Cahill or Noreen Maher.

Yearbook: Can any team manager who hasn’t sent in their team review for the year get it to Kieran Cahill before the end of the week. These reviews need to be in as the deadline date for the book is soon approaching.

The 560 page publication with 442 photographs gives a comprehensive account of club activities during this forty-four year period.
