It was a beautiful Tuesday for the trip to Howth and lets hope its the same next Tuesday.

 This Tuesday, June 11th we are doing the canal walk from Portobello down towards Baggot Street.  Meet in Molloy’s carpark (outside the Taxi office in the carpark) – we’re leaving at 7.30pm sharp, so please be early and don’t forget your cameras!  Looking forward to seeing you there! Or you can make your own way out and we will be parking in Charlemont street and meet up at the Barge pub.

A request for a member: Would any member be interested in helping Laura Kelly out. Details below. If you are interested please let me know.

“My name is Laura Kelly Im a youth worker with Foróige Tallaght, I have a group of young people on a summer programme next week June 11th-15th and on the saturday we are having a recognition event I was hoping to have a photographer come to take pictures of their work at end of the week for their recignition event on the Saturday, I was hoping you might be able to point me in the direction of someone who might facilitate this for us?”

A Sunday outing: On Sunday 23rd June we are thing of an outing to Avondale House and Forest Park in Co. Wicklow. The estate comprising of over 500 acres of forestry and parkland, includes signposted nature walks. Navigate your way through exotic and native tree species, along the banks of the Avonmore river and down the famous “Great Ride”.  The entrance fee to the house and the audio visual is 7.50 but if ten or more are interested it will cost 5.00. To walk around the grounds its free which I think will be the best option. Their is also a charge of 5.00 per car to get into the carpark and if we car pool the club will pay the car park fee.

If you are interested in going please let me know (1) grounds only or (2) house and the audio visual. I need to have a rough idea of how many of you would be interested in this. That will be on Sunday 23rd June and we will meet in Molloy’s carpark at 9.00am.
