Dinner Dance

All roads lead to the GAA clubhouse in Puckane this coming Saturday 12th March when the club will host a dinner dance where medals will be presented to the victorious teams from 2021 along with the 2020 County Senior Hurling winning panel. Tickets cost €30 and are available to purchase online at KiladanganGAA.com and will be available to purchase in the shops & pubs in the parish (they will also be available for purchase this Wednesday 9th March at 7.30 pm in the GAA complex in Puckane). It promises to be a great night of craic and music with plenty of entertainment planned. Sean Slattery and The Connections will be providing the music on the night whilst RTE’s Darren Frehill will be the MC. There will be loads of fun games, messages from familiar faces and bits of craic throughout the night! It is also the first club based event in our new centre which will be unrecognizable on evening so make sure to spread the word. In addition, doors will open at 4.30 pm where the Ireland v England Six Nations rugby game will be streamed live on the big screens.
