Roscrea Trail Blazers complete walk around Ballyboy village in aid of the Offaly branch of Parkinson's Ireland.
Our next challenge is the Galty Challenge on June 29th and ahead of that we had our annual summer charity walk on Friday 21st of June last with a 7km hike around the village of Ballyboy.
This charity walk was in aid of the Offaly branch of Parkinson’s Ireland.
The group gathered at Dan and Molly's Pub in Ballyboy at 7:30, and headed off on the short walk around the nearby countryside.
The walk was led by locals Sean and Rose Bracken.
Back at Dan and Molly's, Caitriona, Fergal and Molly made sure the group were well fed and watered, while Nora and Des provided the entertainment for the night.
The Offaly branch of Parkinson's Ireland was represented by Jean and Nuala, who both expressed their gratitude with over €1,000 being raised on the night.
The group wish to thank Sandra Coady and her extended family who looked after everyone so well on the night, and to Bernie's SuperValu, Oliver Douglas and Sons and Liffey Mills for suppling spot prizes on the night.
Their Thursday night walk this week is a walk up by Glenbarrow Waterfall and the Mill Loop, meeting at Glenbarrow car park at 7:30pm.
