Local TD Emer Higgins also came to wish all members a wonderful happy break, and looking forward to hearing us sing in the many venues booked for the remaining months. The Mayor spoke of the great success of the RAMS and The RAMS in Rhythm. The Mayor complimented our group for supporting each other “As we Age” and wishing us health and happiness for the future of the RAMS. The Mayor spoke of the contribution that the RAMS have made to the Community Centre in the past years, and how well the Community centre looked.

The visitors enjoyed freshly baked scones and beverages served by the men. The scrumptious strawberries and cream were a real treat, but skip on the cream!!
