Community Games Art Final.
A number of children from the parish participated in the
County Finals of the Community Games Art competitions on Saturday in
the CBS School, Ennis. Eryn and Tara Moroney both got first place in
their respective competitions and will represent
Clare in Athlone in the National Finals. Blaithin Barry and Emma
Cantillon took Silver and Abby Cantillon and Jack Browne took Bronze. Well done to all who took part in the competition, which brings out the
creative side in so many children throughout the
country.
Ruan Camogie.
The recent registration night for the local Camogie Club
was very well attended. The girls on the U13B and U18C were presented
with their medals by Clare Camogie Star, Chloe Morey, and refreshments
were served. It bodes well for the coming season
that there is such interest in Camogie in the parish and the commitment
of all involved is invaluable to the success of the Club.
The new Ruan Camogie gear, provided by Intosport
Ireland, is now available and it will be displayed in Ruan Community
Centre on this Saturday, Feb. 16, at 7pm, where people may purchase any
of the items. The gear may also be seen on the Ruan
Camogie Facebook page.
Death.
The death has occurred of Breid Ryan (Post) , née Cahir,
Knockane, Newport, Co. Tipperary, formerly of Larchill, sister of Sean
and Frank Cahir, Larchill and the late Michael Cahir, Ballygriffey,
Ruan. The death has also taken place of Michael
Cahir, Wexford, formerly of Kells.
Clothes Collection.
The recent clothes collection for Toonagh School took in
€800, which will be put to good use for the benefit of the children in
the school. The members of the Parents Association are very thankful to
all who continually support them in their
fundraising efforts for the school.
Scouts.
Ruan Scouts held Church Gate collections recently,
making €120 in Dysart and €60 in Ruan. These funds will go towards
purchasing a new tent and to cover training. The Beavers have started
back last week, and meet at a new time of 6.30pm in Ruan
Community Centre. The Club is planning a Bingo Nite in Toonagh Hall in
April, more details nearer the time.
