Much work is going on quietly in building our cultural strength. It is shown by the work that goes into dancing, music etc. The Greencastle performance of a short play “Out of Service” at the Strule Arts Centre was the culmination of much work. A follow-up contribution from Strule Arts centre wasput towards culture within the club.

The club also does the Irish language Collection around St Patricks Day and disburses it to children who attend the Gaeltacht. Many congratulations to all who participate in this way and in Scor and thanks must go to Kate Donnelly for all her hard work and all others concerned. Well done to all!
