Barbecue raises €2,900 for kids

The recent barbecue held in Bardons raised €2,900 for a very deserving charity.

Held on the pub’s roof garden, the event in aid of the Barretstown Castle Foundation just sizzled along.

In included live music from Beefy Minehan & Friends and was the brainchild of Bardons regular Stan Clarke, supported by proprietor Eddie Cross and his colleagues Linda Price and Ellen O’Driscoll.

Local businesses got behind the event with sponsorship of the food and spot prizes.

In 1994, Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Camps founded its first camp in Europe, at Barrestown.
