**After a recent meeting of the joint organising committee of Boyle GAA Clubs (Ladies and Men) the following arrangements for the Dinner Dance and Presentation Night were endorsed. It will be held in Kilronan Castle on Saturday night the 9th of February. Every consideration was made to ensure that tickets were reasonably priced and they will now cost €35. They are available from any of the following; Karen Brogan (086 8046477), Mary Clifford (086 8164541), Martin Dolan (086 2413529), Laura Gannon (085 7298343), Kathleen Hanmore (086 1229421), Sabrina Kerins (086 1291908), Emer Killilea (086 3958181), Aidan Lavin (0872677865), Vivienne Moran (086 8957185) and Mary Smith (086 8211683). The Clubs are delighted to have secured a current ‘All-Star’ as the special guest for the night. Medal presentations will be made to the County Junior ‘A’ title-winning Ladies Footballers and to the Boyle minor team who were runners-up in the County Minor Division 1 Championship. Presentations will also be made to the; ‘Players of the Year’ at Intermediate, U21 and Minor grades as well as the ‘Hall of Fame’ and Club ‘Person of the Year’, all of which will be announced on the night. Patrons are advised to get their tickets early for what promises to be a special night in Kilronan Castle as there are space limitations and indications are that there will be huge demand.
3.30....Just to let you know that the classic cartoon, 'The Secret of Kells', is on R.T.E. 2 today, Monday, at 6.30. Paul Young is the Boyle person with a huge input into this film which was nominated for an Oscar as best animation film in 2010. If you stick with the credits to the end you'll see some familiar names! t.c.
12.30 p.m. The Club's Annual Christmas Quiz, in St Joseph's Hall, on Friday night last, was, once again, an unqualified success There was almost a full house and all were challenged and entertained by the 9 rounds of questions which were set and presented by Tony Conboy. The Club extends it thanks to all who supported the event, especially the many Boyle natives who were back amongst us for the Christmas and the team footballers who turned out in force. Thanks also to all who assisted in any way in the smooth running of the event and those who helped in the preparation and subsequent tidy up of the Hall. Thanks also to Aaron and his bar staff, to the effervescent DJ Francis Candon and to the always helpful Tommy Egan. (Indeed I(t.c.) take this opportunity to note how lucky we are to have Tommy in those situations especially King House where he does a really great job. I hope that this is recognised by the appropriate agencies). A jacket, scarf and bottle of wine were left in the Hall after the Quiz. They can be recovered by contacting Aidan Lavin at 087 2677865. Friday Dec. the 27th 2013 is pencilled in for next year’s Quiz. Any ideas etc. re enhancing the Quiz night would be very welcome to t.c. 086 816 33 99.
The next big event will be the presentation Dinner- Dance which the Club is arranging in conjunction with the Ladies GAA Club, in Kilronan Castle Hotel on Saturday the 9th of February. There will be at least one special guest present on the night--full details will be announced in the coming weeks. Tickets will be on sale shortly and the cooperation of all who intend to attend, in letting the organising committee know, would be appreciated.
The Club's AGM will be held in the Clubroom on Sunday the 20th of January. Club members are asked to return any outstanding nomination forms to the Secretary, Kathleen Hanmore.
Boyle GAA Club expresses its sympathy to former Club Chairperson and player Kevin Young and his family, and to the O'Connor family, Boyle on the untimely passing of Barbara Young (nee O'Connor).
The Club wishes all our players, mentors, sponsors and supporters a very happy New Year.
Go raibh maith agaibh,
