FUNDRAISER
The match between Enniskerry GAA and Enniskerry Youth Club provided great entertainment and raised over €300 for the senior Citizens of Enniskeery. John Rafferty and his Gaelic players were the winners in the end despite Alan Young "urging "his side on and as a last ditch effort he introduced himself as a sub. Well done to all who helped out on the great sporting occasion.
