Club Chiaráin 2023 – July 3rd to July 7th
Day 1
The Annual Club Chiaran Camp ignited into full gear on Monday morning with 90 girls and boys splendidly attired in their 2023 shirts keen to put in a stirring and fruitful week.
Groundsman Mr. Pat O’Neill had the pitches in pristine order and there was a great willingness among all the participants and Coaches to get into action promptly.
It was a great day, judging by the reaction of all as the final whistle blew and all are keen to be back the rest of the week here the forecast looks largely favourable.
The Club was delighted to greet and welcome Mrs. Mary Hegarty and her daughter Susan, who were early callers. Camp Coordinator Deirdre Twomey presented them with replica camp shirts.
The weather was kind and this was especially beneficial for Photographer Siobhan Russel who made her annual visit. Plenty of smiles all round as all the participants were assembled, to be recorded for for posterity, and an appearance on our favourite local newspaper The Carrigdhoun Weekly,- Thanks Siobhan
