PURE MULE' IN KILCORMAC
The filming of a follow-up to the film 'Pure Mule' caused a bit of excitement in Kilcormac on Thursday and Friday of last week when a film crew with trucks and cranes arrived to film on Kinnitty Road. The filming, which took place mostly during the hours of darkness, was of a building site, so "Brosna View" was created in Kilcormac for the purposes of the film. It is understood that filming also took place in Ballyboy and Lumcloon, so there will be much local interest when the film hits our screens later in the year.
KILCORMAC RAMBLERS
Kilcormac Ramblers are off to Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, on Sunday next July 26. This is the July walk, and Ramblers can visit the House, Gardens and the walking trails. A bus will run, leaving the Square, Kilcormac at 2pm sharp, and the fare including bus and entry to Belvedere is €15. As it is a 28-seater bus the first twenty-eight members will be facilitated. There are a few more seats still available. Please call Mary Feighery (91 35091), immediately to reserve a seat
CEMETERY SUNDAY
A large crowd turned out on Sunday evening last for the annual devotions in St Joseph's Cemetery. Thankfully the weather stayed fine for the duration of the ceremonies, which were conducted by Fr Ed Daly PP. The Rosary was recited while the graves were being blessed by Rev Fr Michael Meade, Mountbolus and Rev Fr Patk Keary, PP Clara. Afterwards Fr. Daly thanked all who helped in the cleaning of the cemetery, the provision of amplification, and people who recited the Rosary. The ceremonies concluded with the singing of Faith of our Fathers.
SYMPATHY
Deepest sympathy goes to the family of the late Thos Digan, Ballyoran, the family of the late Mrs Gret Cronly, Mountbolus and to the Gilligan family Lumcloon on the death of Mrs Frances Gilligan, last week.
