BURNCOURT GREAT ‘BIG BREAKFAST’ THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

Burncourt Community rocked last Sunday morning with The Big Breakfast on offer. It was a great morning as families and friends chatted, being ably served a delicious breakfast by the waiting crew, hot from the hard-working team in the kitchen. The community kitchen echoed with orders and good-humoured banter. A huge thanks to the regular loyal volunteers, the new recruits who were super and the background committee who ensured that all was in synch.

As this was a fundraiser for much needed working funds for the Community Hall, our gratitude to all of you who joined us and to our sponsors Danny Fitzgerald, Dairygold, Pat Fox, Jimmy Fitzgerald, Sweeney’s Mushrooms, English’s Fruit & Veg, our phenomenal bakers Patsy Mulcahy, Ann Casey, Trish Mulcahy and to David Fitzgerald, butcher for his help. A huge combined effort that worked once again.
