A group of 45 musicians dancers storyteller and singers also competed in the munster final of Plearacha which was held in Templeglantine on Sunday. It was a most entertaining evening of fantastic talent and variety. The Ballydonoghue group received 2nd and qualified along with Templeglantine to go  to Dublin later in the month.
A confined set dancing competition will take place at Tomaisín's hall on Saturday evening beginning at 7.30pm. and the branch concert will be held at Tomaisín's on Friday 13th March. Your support is very much appreciated at these two events as the young dancers and musicians display what they have learned through out the year. The branch continues to go from strength to strength thanks to the dedication of both the teachers and the parents who give such time and support to the young and very talented members.
