Keep Saturday evening, 28th April free!! The club are hosting a trip down memory lane that evening at 8.30 in the Social Centre. School Around the Corner is a well known and popular TV programme over the years and the format is as seen on TV. The only difference is that the ‘schoolchildren’ are a wee bit older than one might expect and are drawn from the four corners of the parish. It would be an understatement to say that these people are ‘characters’ so if you want to see familiar faces give the performances of their lives, be sure to be there. It promises to be a fantastic night’s entertainment and craic and is not to be missed. Tickets will be available next week and keep an eye out for posters that will give you a clue of the characters taking part. Also keep an eye out on facebook and the club website for more information. So remember, Saturday the 28th April – don’t miss it

A Party Event will take place where we will have Irish Dancers and musicians performing. The event is seen as important by the Lithuanian community and I would like the GAA community to give it strong support. On the 15th of April in the Family Resource Centre, Oriel Way, Mullaghmatt, Monaghan there will be an Easter celebration. The event will start at noon and conclude at 2 pm. The Lithuanian community of Monaghan in association with the Monaghan GAA community will present their traditions, games and songs. The Lithuanian community will show off their traditional Easter Eggs painting with wax and paint. The GAA community will demonstrate Irish dancing and music. There will be refreshments and cake!
