Cappamore Show




As the Cappamore Show approaches its 56th birthday their Press Reception last week reflected the experience



and talent one associates with this well-known East Limerick event. No last minute hitches here as planning commences the week after their previous event ….a thorough ‘de brief’ with no holes barred. This was very evident as popular Show Secretary Paddy Ryan (Luke) addressed the gathering and everybody was fully aware of his or her respective roles for 2010.



The success of this agricultural show has never in doubt. They have increased their sponsorship, maintained a healthy financial situation, and the full co-operation of young and the not so young in their community.



Ni neart go cur le céile.



The local ICA ladies have always been closely associated with the show and this was very much in evident



in Hayes’ Sliabh Felim ‘Function Rooms last week when show chairperson and former ICA president Marie



Hayes announced a special category to mark the ICA centenary year of 2010.A special presentation will be made to the best-dressed ICA member at the show. The lucky stylish winner will be presented with beautiful prize of a piece of Louise Kennedy crystal, on an inscribed plinth marking 100 years of ICA.It is anticipated that this prize will be keenly contested from ICA members both inside and outside the barony. Distance is no barrier to these intrepid followers of fashion.

Two Moons on August 27 2010





Fortunately, this is a Friday night....

Interesting - if we can stay awake!

Aug 27 the Whole World is waiting for.............

Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August. It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. This will culminate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles off earth. Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like the earth has 2 moons.

The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287.

Share this with your friends, as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ever see it again.
