Sunday 13th July : Run Skibbereen Event

 It was fantastic to be involved in the Run Skibbereen Event on Sunday 13th July. An Early start for us at 830am but it was a great event with a superb atmosphere of supporters for the 10km and half marathon runners.











Saturday 5th July 2025: South of Ireland Band Championships, Clonakilty

 It was a fantastic day out in Clonakilty for the South of Ireland Band Championships. We entered the Junior Category playing at 930am and then headed out to Scally's Supervalu for 1030am for a short recital. There were many bands out and about from all over Ireland and some visitors from Wales and Scotland too. The Old Time fair was also on adding to the atmosphere throughout the town.

We had a great result coming 2nd again in the Junior Category and our Horn player, Leo, won the Jack O'Mahony cup for best musicianship with his horn solo for The Final Countdown.
