Newchapel Graveyard Clean-up.

Thanks to Rathkeevin Macra for organising the Newchapel graveyard cleanup and thanks to all the people who turned up to help on Saturday last.

Girls and boys, young and old worked hard all day; years of overgrowth and neglect were removed, tombs and headstones emerged from ivy, trees, briars and grass to leave the graveyard in a more respectful and fitting condition.

Thanks for the great effort. We hope to post some photographs here on the Clerihan website next week.

Rathkeevin Macra – Know Your Neighbour Weekend

In support of “Know Your Neighbour Weekend” Rathkeevin Macra have organised a clean up of the old cemetery at Newchapel, Clerihan, Clonmel on Saturday 20 August 2011, kicking off at 10.30am.

Lunch will be provided on site to all volunteers by The Village Grill in Clerihan. The clean up will be followed by a night out with more food and music at Ryan’s Bar in Clerihan where a great night is promised.

All help would be greatly appreciated. If you have them please bring strimmers, hedge trimmers, rakes, sprongs, slashers & wheelbarrows. Anyone interest in coming along or joining Rathkeevin Macra please give Brian a call on (087) 2927877.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
