A friendly, informal gathering took place in Leghowney Hall to celebrate Nollaig na mBán.
Originally scheduled for Saturday, January 3, the original event had to be cancelled due to treacherous driving conditions caused by snowfall.
It was rescheduled to the following Saturday, January 10, and was very much enjoyed by those who came along.
