RATHKEEVIN MACRA – NOVEMBER 14

   Rathkeevin, Slievenamon and Fethard Macra na Feirme teamed together to run a charity car wash on Saturday November 5th and Sunday November 6th at the Showgrounds Shopping Centre in Clonmel to help raise much needed funds for a defibrillator for the centre.  An extremely enjoyable day was had by all and the event was a great success.  We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Julian and all at the Showgrounds, Sean O’Donoghue Motor Parts, Mahers Plant Hire, Clonmel Machinery, KK Vet and Hygiene, Scanlon’s Food Factory, all those who contributed to the event over the weekend and to all those who volunteered their time and efforts to wash cars.

Macra na Feirme consists of a nationwide network of clubs for young people aged between 17 and 35. There is something for all members with regular sports and social events, drama and public speaking competitions and community projects!
