The club held its AGM in Ballycastle Hall on Friday the 27th November with a nice crowd in attendance which was most encouraging. The outgoing Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer gave their reports on what was an exciting and successful 2014 season for Baile an Chaisil CC. Next on the agenda was the election of officers for 2015.
Baile an Chaisil Committee elected for 2015:
Chairperson: Noel Kelly
Secretary/Pro: MáirtÃn Flannery
Treasurer: Cara Finnerty
Child Protection Officer : Emer Donnelly
Following the election of officers, discussions were held on how to make 2015 another exciting and successful year for the club. There was plenty of lively debate with many worthy contributors and the overall sentiment was one of enthusiasm for the year ahead.
The club raised €3700 for Charity in 2014 and we hope to build on this in 2015. We wish the newly elected officers the best of luck for the year ahead. Let's make 2015 another great year for BACCC.
