Fountainstown Family Launch Fundraiser For Temple Street

The McGrath family from Fountainstown launched their Camogie Fundraiser for Temple Street Children’s Hospital in The Oar Bar, Crosshaven recently.

The annual fundraiser, which this year will see over 200 camogie players taking part in a blitz from October 9thto 16th, is held in memory of organiser Jack McGrath’s grandson Noah Martin McGrath who passed away in Temple Street Children’s Hospital in November 2017.

The event will take place again this year in Coachford Camogie Club in collaboration with the Cork Camogie Colleges.

Last Saturday at The Oar Bar, photos were taken to launch the event with Cork Camogie players Stef Beusang, Ciara Daly and Aine Crowley. As well as the Camogie blitz, fundraisers will also take place in the form of a darts night, a social night, bag packing and photo shoots for kids.
