Upper Glanmire Community Association had a fantastic turnout for their first St. Patrick’s Day parade, and it is sure to become an annual event, based on the great sense of excitement it brought to our proud community. White’s Cross GAA Juvenile Club were delighted to participate in the parade which commenced at the Community Centre before parading down to Ros Ard and returning back up to the hall once again. Then the huge attendance adjourned to the sports hall where there were lots and lots of fun activities for young and not so young alike! Face-painting, Zumba dancing, bouncy-castles, Comhaltas Ceoltóirí music, rodeo bull bucking bronco, Irish dancing, sumo wrestling were some of the activities organised for the middle part of the evening and this was all wrapped up with a Ceilí that night.
White’s Cross GAA would like to complement the Upper Glanmire Community Association on their great work in piecing together this very special day for our community – it was obvious for all to see that a vast amount of preparation went into organising and executing the busy day. Moreover we say a big thank you to the parents of our young members who ensured that the green and white White’s Cross jerseys were sparkling clean for the parade – colours that were very much in keeping with the day itself!
