Clare Community Games

Congratulations to all who took part in the Golden Vale County Clare Talent Show on 5th March in Sixmilebridge GAA Hall. Thanks to Golden Vale Milk, the main County sponsors and to all those who helped out, especially MC Sean Stack, the youth volunteers and the judges. The judges had a difficult time as the quality and entertainment value of all the acts was exceptionally high. We wish all the Gold Medal winners best of luck in the National Finals in Athlone on May 27-29. They are reminded to get birth cert and passport size photo to the area or county secretary ASAP!
