New ICA Group
The Irish Countrywomens Association are seeking interest in setting up a new group in Fenagh and the surrounding area. If you would like to get involved please contact Fenagh Visitor Centre on 9645590 to put your name down. The group is aimed at women aged 16 and upwards. Members regularly learn new skills, participate in local charity initiatives and get involved in their local communities. More info at www.ica.ie
This week sees the start of our advertising campaign to recruit members for our new programme. Keep an eye out for the posters which will be displayed around the local area.Our wish is to reach out to as many ladies in the community as we can, as “Gaelic 4 Mothers and Others” is open to ALL females over 18.We will be holding information sessions at a later date to answer any questions you may have. In the meantime, feel free to contact Miceal (087 6522957)or Mella (087 2364252) and we’ll do our best to help. And just to remind you : G4M&O is a fun, non-competitive way to get involved in learning about Ladies Gaelic. The emphasis is on fun, fitness and having a bit of craic.You DO NOT have to be a former player (although retired footballers are welcome!)We will be teaching the basis rules of football in a relaxed atmosphere with a bit of exercise thrown in. Perfect for a mammy who might have a future lady footballer in the house, or someone who is looking for something different to do for the Summer evenings.
Bealtaine Celebrations in Ballinamore Library
As part of the Bealtaine Celebrations Ballinamore Library is showing a series of old Crafts and Customs videos starting with “Making Mud Turf” on Tuesday 6th May at 7pm: This was filmed in Cloone in 1993 and should bring back many memories to those who remember the days of making mud turf and working on the bog. In the coming weeks we have “Traditional Farming” on Tuesday 13th May . “Pilgrimage or Patten to a Holy Well” on Tuesday 20th May and “The Tinsmith” on Tuesday 27th May. All of these have been filmed in Leitrim. Remember: Admission is free with all welcome.
