Annual General Meeting:
Thanks to all who attended the AGM online on Sunday night. It was a really good sign to see the number of people engaging with the reports and discussion. Only good can come from this and we must look to continue to improve the club in 2022. Congratulations to all elected officers and best of luck for the coming year. Chairman Noel O’Dea thanked all volunteers for their efforts and wished all our members and supporters a very merry Christmas and a happy festive period.
Kilteely Dromkeen GAA and Community History Book Project:
At the AGM the very exciting History project was introduced. Huge credit is due to Bosco Ryan and Eddie O’Dea for their immense work already carried out with over 65% now written. While the two lads have been putting in thousands of hours of commitment over the coming weeks and months the project needs your help.
There is immediate help needed: Two practical areas where we would ask for help. Has anyone experience in typesetting, in particular the InDesign software? Also, does anyone have experience of colourising old b&w photos? We have some great photos that we would want to publish in both b&w and colour.
Finally if anyone has any old artefacts/stories to tell of Kilteely Dromkeen GAA or that of the parish through the years please email kdgaahistory@gmail.com or contact Bosco on 087 9684787.
Thanks.

A Christmas raffle is being run with committee members selling entries at 2 euro per line. 1st prize is a Christmas Hamper, 2nd prize is a bottle of whiskey and 3rd prize is a bottle of win. All support is greatly appreciated.
