Hospice Morning

A very successful Coffee Morning in aid of Offaly Hospice was held in the Clubhouse on Thursday morning. The event was organised by the Glenn Eagle ladies and received strong support from the members, especially the senior men who contributed handsomely to this very worthy cause. While the final figures are not available as yet the organisers are delighted with the very substantial amount raised. Well done to all involved.
