Santa has a message for all the kids and joins in the Juveniles Christmas cheer - watch & donate

​We have a special message from Santa ..who is limiting his movements prior to coming on Christmas Eve so that everyone is kept safe and well for Christmas. So instead of our annual Juvenile Christmas Party, some of our juveniles and their families, children from
St. John's Senior School Kilkenny
, 3 unusual Christmas Elves - with a little help from the music of Slade - put together a short festive cheerer-upper for you. All they ask is that you help Santa with his great work in raising funds for
Temple Street Childrens Hospital Dublin
..something our club contributes to each Christmas.
Click on the link and donate.
Happy Christmas Everyone - and thanks for all the help during the year in keeping the community active
