Rockchapel GAA’s Wren Hunt: Fun and Funds for Cancer Connect

Rockchapel GAA went hunting the wren on St. Stephens day to do two things, firstly raise money for Cancer Connect and the second thing was to keep the tradition alive of calling to houses, playing music and dancing to raise money for a good cause and have a bit of fun in the process. Dan Murphy was there to represent Cancer Connect, and said how it was so important to have small communities doing their part as it costs in the region of €100,000 to run such a valuable service. Tony Murphy chairman of the GAA club emphasised how generous people are to this cause.
