Our meetings are normally held on the 1st Thursday of every month at Streete Parish Park, commencing at 11.30am to 1pm It is an ideal opportunity for friends and strangers to meet and have a gossip!
Most months we have a Speaker to give a talk on a variety of topics that would be of interest to our members. In the past, the topics have included various health related issues, safety advice from a member of An Garda Siochána, gardening tips from a local Garden Centre etc.
We also take the opportunity to inform our members of forthcoming events and holidays etc. A Raffle is held and drawn at the end of the meeting.
