On Thursday, the Summer Camp welcomed double-gold-winning Special Olympian Dearbhail Savage to Derrytrasna. Hailing from Clady, Co. Armagh, Dearbhail met with all the young children to show off her silverware in the equestrian disciplines in which she won one silver and two gold medals. Friday day marked the opening of our new 3G training grounds, officially by Mrs Michelle O’Neill (MLA/ Minister for Agriculture and Rural Development). As she was unable to attend this occasion, we were delighted to welcome Mr Cathal Ó hOisín MLA, Private Secretary to Michelle O’Neill.
