With Renewed Thanks

Our Church History. A history of our parish church compiled by the students of Scoil Ruain can be seen at the back of the church.This involved visiting the church,writing records and taking pictures of the church and putting it all down in writing and through photos taken by themselves. This display is well worth a visit.

Keeping Killenaule tidy. Students from Scoil Ruain and young children from Hilltop Playschool took to the streets of Killenaule in the past few weeks on a cleanup of litter in the town. It is now hoped adults will follow their example and make an effort to keep the town tidy. Ten years have passed since Killenaule last entered the Tidy Towns Competition. The local committee first entered in Tidy Towns in 1967 and won many prizes during the following years. It would cheer up the town if some hanging baskets and window boxes were displayed.

Garden Club. Members of the garden club will visit Glanbia Fethard Garden Centre on Tuesday 9th June and a demonstration will be given by a horticulturist. Members to meet at the Car Park in Main Street at 6.30pm.

Folk Choir. Practice on Wednesday 10th June at 7.15pm in St. Mary's Hall.

Senior Citizens. Next Meeting on Wednesday 10th June at 2.30pm in St. Mary's Hall. Denise Moloney Irish step dancer will perform. Names will be taken of members travelling on summer outing on Wednesday 8th July.

G.A.A. Thanks to all who supported the forecast on last Sunday's match between Cork and Tipperary results will be published next week. Player of the week is Killian O'Dwyer who was outstanding at wing back for the U10's. Player of the past is Chris Cooke. Chris was a very promising underage player, but emigration took him to London where he won three London titles with Brian Boru's. He was named hurler of the year three times in London. He won a South Tipperary final with Killenaule in 1985 and was unlucky not to win the county the same year. .
