Bunbrosna GAA Lights Up

Last Wednesday saw a fantastic turn out for our first ever ‘Ireland Lights Up’. Over 100 people turned up to get the steps in, in what was a wonderful occasion. We encourage everyone to come along for the next 5 Wednesdays.

Ireland Lights Up’ encourages GAA clubs across the 32 counties to light up and bring communities together to walk and talk in a safe environment during the dark winter evenings. Last Wednesday saw a fantastic turn out for our first ever ‘Ireland Lights Up’

We are again inviting club members and members of the local community to get out and walk with us between 6.30 and 7.30pm. The walks will continue every Wednesday evening for the next 5 weeks. Participants are asked to register on the night and we hope to see a good turnout. Proper footwear and high vis jackets are advised!

Irish Life – ‘Every Step Counts Challenge’ 2024

In conjunction with ‘Ireland Lights Up,’ we’ve also enlisted for the ‘Irish Life – Every Step Counts Challenge’ 2024. Irish Life calls on clubs to collectively cover 4,000km over a five-week period (Jan 10th to Feb 12th). 

There’s a total of €30,000 in club funding up for grabs from Irish Life, and clubs reaching the target qualify for a draw with prizes like O’ Neill’s vouchers.

Participants are requested to download the ‘My Life’ App and follow the steps in the attached pictures to record steps on smartphones/wearable trackers (Apple Watch, Fit-Bit, etc.)

Condolences

All at Bunbrosna GAA wish to offer our sincere condolences to the Price family, Mullingar, on the sad passing of Mick.

Mick was a much loved character throughout the county but especially within Westmeath GAA circles. He was a very friendly man and always great for a yarn. His loss will be felt by the many many people he interacted with over the course of his life.

To his wife, Mary, sons Paul and David, his brothers and sisters Tom, Padraig, Kathy, Marie and Patsy, extended family and wide circle of friends, we offer our deepest sympathies to you all at this sad time.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh sé.
