Congratulations
We say
congratulations and well done to our club Chairman Seamus Casey on being chosen
as the Connacht provincial winner for the GAA Healthy Club Hero Award. He has
been awarded for the great leadership he showed in implementing the Healthy
Club model and making our club and community a healthier place for everyone to
enjoy. Since joining our club only a few short years ago Seamus, originally
from Offaly but brought to Sligo by his west Sligo wife Caroline, has become
the leader of so many good initiatives in the club including the production of
our 30 year anniversary booklet, the Operation Transformation activities which
got so many members of our community involved in healthy pastimes and other
events which bring our club more into the community. All in the club thank
Seamus for his great contribution and leadership. He is a truly worthy winner
of this award and he was presented with his award at a ceremony in Croke Park
on Saturday last.
Thanks
A huge
thanks to all club members who joined with the soccer and athletics clubs in
