Cashel Lions Club is therefore appealing to community groups and individuals not just in Cashel and Rosegreen but also in the neighbouring communities in Golden, Knockavilla, Clonoulty, Boherlahan, Dualla, and New Inn to nominate a young person who is displaying leadership qualities for the Cashel Lions Club Young Person of the Year Award 2023.

So look to the future and get your thinking caps on and enhance the future of your local community by ensuring that your community, club, organisation or school has a nominee in the Cashel Lions Club Young Person of the Year 2023.Application forms and further details are available by emailing [email protected] or by contacting Eddie Morrissey or any member of Cashel Lions Club.

Diarmuid Barron

Diarmuid Barron is a professional rugby player who currently plays for Munster Rugby, one of the four professional provincial rugby teams in Ireland. He was welcomed back to his home village of New Inn with a celebratory event on Saturday, October 14. The community came together to honour his achievements and express their belief in his future success.

The evening was a family affair, with the Barron family, including Diarmuid, taking the time to meet and inspire the village’s future stars. The event was organised by Rockwell Rovers GAA club, including Geraldine, Mary from the Senior Club, Isobel from the Social committee, Martina from the Ladies’ Gaelic Football Association, Louise from the Camogie Association, and Elaine from the Juvenile committee. The local hall committee and New Inn tennis club provided the facilities for the event.

Several speakers took the stage during the occasion, including Fr. Jack Meade and Fr Brenden Duggan  from Rockwell College, Fr. Bobby Fletcher from New Inn, John Hally, the Chairman of Rockwell Rovers, Jimmy Looby, the President of Rockwell Rovers, Kevin Barron from Rockwell Rovers, and Diarmuid himself. Diarmuid spoke about his time playing with Rockwell Rovers, the skills he had obtained playing with his local gaa club and his current experience with Munster. The event was captured in photos by Tadgh Mohally. MC on the night was John Cooney who summed up Diarmuid’s career to date including Munster’s URC cup final win, Ireland A rugby team and Ireland U20 team for two years. Well done to all involved who help make the evening a wonderful success and we wish Diarmuid the best for the future!

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS

To former curate of New Inn and PP Walkinstown, Dublin, Fr Denis Foley. Denis Foley came to New Inn in February 1968 as CC and served there until July 1982 when he was transferred to Walkinstown, Dublin as PP. While in New Inn he pursued two great passions in his life. He was the owner of two hunter horses and a kennel of award-winning pure-bred dogs and was regularly seen astride his silver Hunter or walking his large pack of Afghan Elk and wolf hounds. However, his recreational interests never interfered with his Pastoral Work. His dedication to caring for the elderly, the lonely and the sick, quickly gained him the respect and affection of the parishioners of New Inn/Knockgraffon where he still has to date many long-standing friendships. We wish him good health and happiness as he enters his 95^th year.
