CAMOGIE NOTES

It was hard luck on our u14 team last Saturday June 18 after a thriller of a match. Our girls lost out by 1 point in the County U14 shield final at the County Camogie grounds, The Ragg against Silvermines. The game was so exciting, it was anyone’s game, but our girls put on some display and even though we lost, we can hold their heads high. The skills they have improved on is second to none, and the teamwork, what can we say but “brilliant”. The loss will make us better and we will be back! A big thank you to mentors PJ Moloney, Kieran Durkan, Louise Moloney and Tara Stafford and to all parents who travelled on the day to support the girls.

ANNUAL PILGRIMAGE TO KNOCK 2022

On Saturday 18 June. Please contact Margaret on 087 0568216 or Mary Jo on 086 2112019 to book a place on the bus. Coach departs Cashel at 7am, Golden at 7.15am, Marian Hall, Tipp at 7.30, Monard at 7.40, Oola at 7.45, Pallasgreen at 7.50 and Boher at 8am. What does a pilgrim find at Knock? A chance to pray, a chance to relax, a chance to find peace. The devotions that have developed in the course of one hundred years are guaranteed to touch the soul. To be with other praying people at a Shrine is to get a unique chance to stand back from life and let God throw light on its bits and pieces. To journey out from home on pilgrimage throws light on home. Travel broadens the mind, in more senses than one.
