The Meath Writers' Circle/June 2019!

The Meath Writers' Circle/June 2019!


About twelve people turned out for our June meeting with readings of poetry and storytelling and planning a few upcoming events. The magazine is ahead of schedule with only a few left to come in ~ but never there till it's there. The Peggy Murphy Memorial Fund is holding an event on next Friday night in Fergie's of Kilmessan at 9 pm with the proceeds going to the local Lourdes fund and the Skane Valley Active Retirement Group. Artists who are lined up include Ray Murtagh, Matt Leavy and Cyril Ashe and maybe one or two more! Tickets are €10 and all are welcome. The Scurlogstown Olympiad/Haymaking Festival is on next Sunday afternoon in the Porchfields in Trim with something for everyone and there's sure to be plenty of music and song with perhaps a few poems as well. Again all are welcome and it's a great day out for the family. The Sheaf Tossing competition is a must see and the world record is there for anyone who can master the technique.
