SPOOKFEST
Our Spookfest is back. New Inn village is holding its annual Scarecrow competition from the 11th of October. We will be setting out challenges for every family, household, business, and organization to take part in our 2021 competition. This will lift the mood & spirits of everyone during the winter months plus we all have a bit of craic through Facebook and other media. We are doing a pig on a spit with live music on Saturday the 30th of October and the Zombie walk and spooky Olympics for Kids on the Saturday from 4pm onwards. So, this year we must make this one the biggest yet for everybody. We’ll need as many scarecrows as possible lining our village and roads so we can get the village buzzing. We are calling all our families, groups of people, townlands, schools, players from teams, clubs etc. to get together and create a masterpiece of a scarecrow of any theme you wish. Please keep an eye on our Facebook page, Spookfest, for further updates. If anyone needs more information, please contact Anita on 087 6505889. Get the thinking caps on everyone!!
