NEW INN CLASSIC VINTAGE CLUB

The sun shone brightly on Sunday, May 5th, as the New Inn Vintage Club held its annual Car & Tractor Run in honour of the late Walter (Watty) Cleary. The day kicked off with a delightful fun run for children, who rode their tractors and bikes through the village. It was a sight to behold, and it’s exciting to think that in ten years’ time, many of these youngsters will be driving their own cars and tractors in the run!

The event was a resounding success, raising an impressive €8000.00 for three important local organizations: New Inn Parish Links, Cashel Day Care Center, and Cashel Residential Older Persons Services (CROPS). The club is immensely grateful to all the dedicated volunteers who contributed their time and effort to make the day a triumph. From selling raffle tickets to providing food and acting as marshals to ensure everyone’s safety, their invaluable support was instrumental in the event’s success. The club extends its heartfelt thanks to everyone who generously made donations, as well as to the local schools and the GAA for allowing the use of their facilities.

The raffle prizes were truly fantastic, and the winners were thrilled. Orla Peters walked away with the first prize, followed by Ann Moloney in second place and Willie Flynn in third. Gearoid Moloney claimed the fourth prize, and a total of 25 prizes were awarded. As the evening descended, the festivities continued with an exciting auction at Barron’s Pub, accompanied by lively music. The club expresses its deepest gratitude to all those who generously donated items for the auction. The support and contributions from the community were truly heartwarming. A special thank you goes out to everyone who came out to witness the stunning display of vintage cars, tractors, and bikes. It is the unwavering support of people like you that makes this day so extraordinary.

The New Inn Vintage Club was established in May 2010 by Walter Cleary and Jimmy O Farrell. It is remarkable to see how the club has flourished over the years, and we eagerly anticipate many more successful runs in the future, raising funds for our beloved local communities. To date, the club has raised an impressive €50,000.00. This event showcases the power of community spirit and the joy that comes from preserving our rich heritage. The New Inn Vintage Club looks forward to continuing its important work and making a positive impact in the years to come.

Pictured here at the New Inn Vintage rally recently were Sophie Lyons, Margaret Ann Lyons, Jack Lyons, Mary Cooney and Kate Lyons.

CAMOGIE CLUB CREATES HISTORY 

The parish of New Inn and Knockgraffon is bursting with pride as their local U15 Féile girls’ team from Rockwell Rovers Camogie Club created history by winning the ‘C’ Final on Sunday, April 7 in Fethard.

Instead, they rallied, showing true grit and determination in the face of adversity. Their hard work paid off, with the final score standing at a close 1-2 to 0-6 in their favor.

The victory has sent waves of excitement and pride through the parish of New Inn and Knockgraffon.

CONGRATULATIONS

to Eileen Hally, Farrankendry and the Ladies of the 1974 All Ireland Team who made an appearance on The Late Late Show GAA Special last Friday, April 5. This marks the first of many celebrations in this, the 50th year of the LGFA.

This team has the distinction of winning the first Ladies Football All Ireland final in 1974. Their historic victory over Offaly, fifty years ago, still stands as a significant win in the sport’s history.

We trust that the appearance on The Late Late Show was a delightful journey down memory lane for all of you. It’s always gratifying to see our sports heroes receive the recognition they deserve, particularly on such a significant anniversary.

Here’s to another 50 years of the LGFA! Continue to inspire us with your commitment, passion, and talent. We are incredibly proud of you, Eileen, and we hope you had a fantastic night!
