Swinford & District Gardening Club
Swinford & District Gardening Club’s annual charity Christmas Floral Demonstration, on December 4th in the Gateway Hotel, was a great success. Judi Roche of Balla Flowers created superb arrangements on the night. A “guess the weight of the cake” (kindly baked by Ann Taylor) attracted hundreds of guesses. The eventual winner was Shirley Mooney, Ballyhaunis.
In total 2,540.00 euro was raised for this year’s chosen charity Down Syndrome New Regional Centre on the Kilkelly Rd, Swinford.
We would like to thank all those who sponsored, supported or helped in any way. Your support for this truly worthy cause is deeply appreciated.
