We will have the usual fun games and stalls including, Pony Rides, Sumo Games (Final around 4PM), Goldfish, Face Painting, Duck Game, Golf, Hanging Man (who can hang the longest), High and Low Game, RAM BO is back and more to keep all entertained!

We have a very special game for the first time, big thanks to local engineer, Paul Murphy who designed and engineered our Dunk Tank…we have a few Special Guests who will be the target and you can always dare your friends. Rumour is the Chairman will be first in, the referee everything loves to hate…Noel Kinsella, maybe Justin Cummins, Mick Ruttle, anyone else?? Add your comments below…Are there any newly elected representatives interested?

Note – bring a towel along on the day and spare cloths!
