Community Spirit Shines at Dromtarriffe GAA

The Dromtarriffe Community Alert Committee were delighted to welcome Diarmuid Cronin from Muintir Na Tire to Dromtarriffe GAA grounds on Saturday, September 2nd where he laser branded valuable items belonging to members of our community. Diarmuid was kept busy branding ride-on lawnmowers, power tools, electric bikes, and musical instruments. Garda liaison officers, Garda Kathryn Canty and Garda Clement Sillery, joined and spoke with people about safety and security. On the day, €220 in donations were raised with €165 being donated to Dromtarriffe GAA and €55 being retained by the Dromtarriffe Community Alert Committee for updating community alert signage in the area. We were also treated to a tune by Sadhbh Murphy after her tin whistle was branded.

The Committee would like to thank Mr. Cronin of for donating his time and expertise to brand items, Dromtarriffe GAA for the use of their premises, Garda Kathryn Canty and Garda Clement Sillery for their support and the members of our community who supported this event and brought goods for branding.
