OPEN EVENING ON WEDNESDAY NEXT
An Open/Introductory Evening will be held at Midleton Community Centre on Wednesday week September 29th between 7pm and 8pm to officially launch our winter programme. The aim of the evening is also to give potential new members the opportunity to come along and find out more information about training/races/club social events etc. So, tell your family, work colleagues and friends. Last year’s event was a huge success with several new members joining our club and a subsequent new weekly beginners hour under coach Vincent Connolly proving extremely hour.
It was also very encouraging to see a huge number of existing members present to welcome some new faces to our club. So keep the date in the diary, leave the running shoes at home and join us for chat and a cuppa between 7pm and 8pm on Wednesday September 29th.
