The club has some free passes available whilst under under 12s get in free. Follow our dog’s progress on Saturday night on Twitter @crecoragaa.
LEAFLET DROP:
A reminder that our leaflet drop to publicise the launch of the GAA & Camogie Fundraising Drive for the All Weather Pitch, takes place on Saturday 26th March from 10.30am-11.30am. We need volunteers to meet at the GAA pitch to collect leaflets and do a section of road. Also, if you intend to pay the suggested family contribution of €300 towards our Development Plan works, but have not yet done so, now is the time to do it if possible please as works will be starting soon and your support is needed now.
FEILE PEIL:
This year’s Feile Peil team competed last weekend and while results did not go their way , the determination and never say die attitude was commendable. Well done also to coaches.
