DUHILL DRAMATIC SOCIETY AGM
What a fantastic year we had in 2022 returning to the stage after the pandemic and a hugely successful run with Jim Keary’s great play ‘I’m the one for you’. We did 2 charities shows in 2022 raising money for local causes The Newcastle Historical Society and a fabulous night for Sth Tipp Hospice in Duhill where we raised €3,286. A huge thanks to all who supported all our nights in Duhill and Newcastle.
Congrats to all our members and indeed the entire cast and crew involved in the recent highly successful fundraiser for Ballylooby National School. Congrats to Micheal Anglim for organising the much needed event.
Well it is time to wrap up things for 2022 and start planning for 2023. Duhill Dramatic Society will hold their AGM on Monday, 24th April in Duhill Community Hall at 8.30pm all are welcome. Please come along and help us to plan. We would be thrilled to see new faces and of course some old faces as well. We promise we won’t put you on the stage only if that is what you want but it takes a lot of people to run Duhill Dramatic Society so do come along and join a great group. Looking forward to seeing you on Monday, 24th April at 8.30pm. If anyone would like more details please contact any of the committee.

RHODODENDRON WALKING FESTIVAL
Bookings are now open for the 2023 Rhododendron Walking Festival. Super line up of new walks, based out of Ballyporeen on the Saturday and Clogheen on the Sunday. The picturesque Valley becomes a global phenomenon as it turns pink and purple for a couple of weeks while the rhododendrons are in full bloom.
The end of May/start of June is the best time to experience the Galty Vee Valley as local trained guides take you deep into the Valley to locate hidden trails and witness stunning scenery.
The family friendly evening will be held in Glengarra Woods and before all that the Cash Returns Show will entertain us all in Clogheen Hall. Bookings on sale for all walks now at http://www.
vee.ie there is limited numbers on these walks so get in quick to be sure of your place as some of these wonderful walks will sell out well before the June Bank Holiday weekend.
