Tues. 11 pm. The following paragraphs re. Pieta House West have been circulated to all clubs in the county and I bring your attention to this very important issue.
Subject: Pieta House West
To assist individuals, families and society deal with the challenge of suicide and
self-harm, a charitable organisation called Pieta House has been established by Joan Freeman a Senior Clinical Psychologist.
Already four such Centres exist in Dublin and one in Limerick. A Pieta, to be
known as Pieta House West, is in the process of being established for the
Counties of Galway, Mayo and Roscommon and everyone is invited to a
public launch for Roscommon in the Abbey Hotel Roscommon on Monday
6th of Feb. at 7.30 pm.
This is a bottom up approach where individuals, by working together, bring strength of purpose to their Community.
'We're back for 2012'.
The above is the headline notice (a bit of Arnold S. tone there) from our sister club in the capital. I hear, on the grapevine, that they had an impressive opening challenge which again raises the suggestion as to how the embargo on training was observed. Anyway we wish them the best of luck and look forward to reports from the Eastern Front.
Well done to the irrepressible Ml. McHale- a Gallowglass of a GAA player- on his sterling performance v Sligo Rovers on Sat. evening.
The coming week end is just full of great sport. On Sat, evening there is a big double header in Croke Park, Kildare v Tyrone and Dublin v Kerry. Sunday Ros. V Tipp. at Kiltoom (!!). A nice bonus for Season ticket holders is that the ticket entitles the holder free access to the Sat. night games and any other Sat. night game even if it is not for the participating counties.
Ir. v Wales on Sunday starts the 6 Nations Rugby Championship. Rugby now poses a huge challenge to the GAA.
Sunday/Monday morning is booked out for sport also with the 46th Superbowl American Football Final with the New York Giants v the New England Patriots at Indianapolis. It could be a cracker if you can cope with the ad. breaks
For those who were lucky enough what a tennis game they saw in the final of the Australian Open last Sunday…a classic. Mention of Oz reminds me of this weeks topic by Supervalu Sam in The Roscommon Herald on an Irish sporting icon in Oz, Jim Stynes check it out on page 3 of the Sport section. While the writer contributes under a bye line I know him and keep an eye on his topics as I do Tommy Conlon ‘On the Couch and Eamon Sweeney ‘Hold the Back Page’ in the Sunday Indo. plus Father Liam Devine…this list is getting out of hand.
It is a big week-end for Athletics at Lough Key Forest Park on Sat. /Sun.
Do not forget to vote for Chris O’Dowd by linking in to: Orange BAFTAS Rising Star Awards. I don’t know when the closing date fro voting is. I presume you’ll be informed of that. The Awards take place on Sunday Feb. 12th.
