Drug
Awareness Night with Philly McMahon
The club along with Northwest Regional Drug and Alcohol Task Force are
hosting a Drug Awareness evening on Thursday the 22nd of November and are
delighted to announce that 6 time All Ireland winner Philly McMahon will be the
special guest.
For
anybody not familiar with Philly, he is a modern day GAA superstar. He has been
pivotal in an incredible Dublin team that has won 6 of the last 8 All-Irelands,
the last 4 in a row, and has won two all-star awards. Philly hails from
Ballymun in north Dublin. Growing up he seen first hand the devastation drugs
can bring to a community, and tragically to his own family. Philly has a
powerful message to share.

**Tickets are free of charge, limited to 4 per person. Recommended for aged
12 upwards. U16s must be accompanied by an adult. Doors open at 7pm with event
