COMMUNITY ALERT
For the benefit of everyone in our community, we have put together a small team of volunteers who are more than willing to help anyone who may need messages or prescriptions to be picked up and delivered to their homes, or in any other way that is necessary.
We are particularly willing to support our senior citizens or those who are living alone and cannot get out by organising the collection of a hot meal in the evening. Please feel free to contact 087 4605166 where this support can be organised at your convenience.
SCHOOL ENROLMENT
Scoil Iosagain Coolgreany is now open for enrolments for the coming new school year, starting in September. Enrolment forms are now available by calling to the local school as soon as possible.
CASTLETOWN GAA
Hope everyone is safe and well in these very unusual and difficult times we find ourselves. Croke Park has informed all clubs that public liability and player insurance are suspended till March 29 at least. Therefore we have no choice but to lock our gates, arena, clubhouse and gym. Please do not use club facilities till further notice. So with this in mind, there will be no hurling or football for any age groups. underage or adult. All yoga classes are also postponed. The Tony Fenton Men’s Health Evening is cancelled and the GAA Healthy Club Step Challenge won’t start till April 20. Look out for each other and please keep in mind any friends and neighbours who might need some support in the coming weeks. Stay safe. We are all in this together.
GOLDEN CIRCLE
Following the new guidelines from our government, our tea dance planned for Easter Monday in the Arklow Bay Hotel is now cancelled. Our trip to Bloom in the park, scheduled for May 28, is now also cancelled as the event is not going ahead. If you have paid for this trip already then please contact Gertie to arrange a refund. All other events are currently going ahead and will be revised if necessary in accordance with government guidelines and advice.
