🎨 Peace Poster Competition Success! 🎨

A very successful Peace Poster Competition concluded tonight in Cashel Library with the announcement of the school winners and the overall winner.

A record 285 entries were received from thirteen local primary schools.

The theme of this year's competition was Harmony in Humanity.
Petronelle Clifton Browne had the difficult task of selecting the winner.

This year's overall winner is Kady Browne from Cashel Girls School. Katie produced a very original and imaginative interpretation of the theme 🏆

The project was very ably coordinated by Club President Monica Slattery, assisted by Margaret Molan Ryan and Willie Fahey.
Suzanne Brosnan was delighted to host the competition in Cashel Library, and Suzanne was an excellent hostess in a fabulous venue.

Well done to all 285 entrants and congratulations to Katie Browne, whose entry will now go forward to the national final of the Peace Poster Competition.

🦁 Celebrating Another Successful Year of Service at Cashel Lions Club 🦁

Cashel Lions Club members recently gathered at Baileys Hotel, Cashel, to mark the end of another successful Lions year at our annual Charter & Handover Night.

We were delighted to welcome Lions Clubs of Ireland District Governor Marian McGreevy and her husband Frank, who travelled from Co. Down to join us for this special occasion.

Outgoing President Monica Slattery reflected on a busy and rewarding year, highlighting the club's 17 community projects and activities, engaged in by the club which contributed to and helped to enhance the quality of life for the people of Cashel and surrounding areas. All made possible through the support of our members, volunteers, sponsors, and the wider community. From supporting local organisations to initiatives that benefit people of all ages, every project was aimed at making a positive difference in Cashel and the surrounding areas.

District Governor Marian McGreevy praised the club for its commitment to service and community spirit, recognising particularly the club's contribution to Lions Clubs Ireland and its role in helping grow Lions membership nationally. She highlighted the wide range of projects undertaken throughout the year, from the Peace Poster Competition for young people to events and activities for senior citizens, and noted the strong partnerships Cashel Lions Club continues to build with local groups including Cashel Day Care Centre, Cashel Social Services and Cashel Tidy Towns.

The evening also provided an opportunity to celebrate the rich history of Cashel Lions Club. Seamus King reflected on the club's proud heritage since its establishment in 1961, making it the fourth oldest Lions Club in Ireland, and highlighted its lasting contribution to the community over the decades.

A special presentation was made to three long-serving members — Tom Horan, Richard Long and Paddy Downey — who received Lions Club Service Chevrons in recognition of their dedication and commitment to serving others through Lions.

As one Lions year ends and another begins, we would like to thank everyone who supports Cashel Lions Club throughout the year. Whether you attend our events, volunteer your time, sponsor our activities, or simply support our fundraising efforts, you help make everything we do possible. Together, we continue to make a difference in our community.
