VINTAGE CHEQUE PRESENTATION
More than 50 workers and helpers attended the Coolgreany Inn last Thursday night for the handing over of two Cheques. Firstly the chairman of Coolgreany Vintage Club Dan Kennedy handed over a cheque for €4,000 To Dr Michael O’Doherty representing North Wexford Hospice, and the club secretary Geraldine O’Rafferty presented a Cheque for €2,000 to Maureen Kelly representing Coolgreany Tidy Towns Group. Both recipients of the Cheques responded very favourably to the receipt of the respective cheques.
At the conclusion of the presentations the chairman thanked everyone for attending on the night and especially for their great efforts on the day of the Vintage Day on September 9 when all and none put their shoulders to the wheel to make the day one of the best in the South East area, on their first ever attempt at such a venture.
Dan also thanked everyone who helped with the car and Tractor run on the bank Holiday weekend. Thanks were also expressed to all photographers and members of the local papers who helped so much on the occasion of both events, without that it would have made the organising more difficult he concluded.
