Elphin Represented With Distinction at Scór Finals
The Connacht Scor na nOg finals took place in Temperance Hall, Loughrea, on Saturday last, and despite two tremendous performances by Elphin’s Music Group and Set Dancers, no title came home. We would like to wish our fellow Roscommon clubs the very best in the All-Ireland in the INEC Killarney at the end of January. The club would also like to thank outgoing Connacht PRO Hugh Lynn for his support of the Scor programme over the last 5 years.
GOAL Mile on Sunday
There’s not long to go until the GOAL Mile in the Orchard Park. Registration starts at 12.30 pm with the event getting underway at 1 pm.
What it is: It is a non-competitive, untimed event where participants run, jog, or walk one mile (1.6 km).
The Cause: It is organised to raise funds for the international humanitarian aid organisation GOAL, which works with vulnerable communities around the world.
