Roisin Oates at speedy recovery following her recent operation, and hopefully

CLOTHING
COLLECTION:
It’s that time of the year again, where I’m sure
your house could do with a spring clean. So if you have any unwanted clothes,
paired shoes, belts, handbags, curtains, towels, soft toys etc., or any old
mobile phones or laptops (please keep mobile phones and laptops separate from
clothing items), you can drop them down to the GAA grounds on Saturday mornings
from 10am to 2pm. The closing date will be Saturday April 2nd.
OLD BOOTS/
HURLEYS/HELMETS:
If you have any old hurleys, football boots,
helmets, ABP Ferrybank Tops, Ferrybank Half zips that are too small or you do
not need any more, you can donate them to Ferrybank GAA club, and we can
redistribute these items to members for free. You can hand in to any personnel
at the club, or alternatively call Andy Carter 087 135 2455.
