Brannockstown plans Summer Festival

Heritage, talent and culture will be the themes in Brannockstown's first ever Summer Festival, to be held 11-13 June.

The village's past and present will be featured over the weekend, which will have photography, music and dancing, historical talks and walks, and a community barbecue.

Local skills, crafts and artisan foods will be on display.

The committee is now looking for old photographs, scrapbooks, local history booklets, and school heritage projects which may be lying about in local homes.

The three key contacts are Steve Schwer, 045 483691; Ian Shiel, ishiel@o2.ie; and Amanda Hennessy, Amandahoran01@gmail.com.
