Missionvale walkers assemble in Fanore

Walker and Egg Hunters turned out in force to  attended the Burren Walk which took place in Fanore on Easter Sunday. Outdoor enthusiasts of all ages  partook in either the 10k walk or the 2k Family Egg Hunt

 Adults and children alike took advantage of a welcome break in the inclement weather to stretch the legs and support the work of Sr. Ethel in Missionvale.

 A new inclusion  to this year’s event was the Family Egg Hunt which took place over a 2km course, and this proved to be extremely popular, especially with the younger ‘walkers’.

After the activities, light refreshments were enjoyed in O Donohue’s Pub in Fanore, where prizes were awarded for the best Easter Bonnets on display.

 The organisers are grateful to all who assisted in making this event such a success, in particular the Civil Defence, O Donohue’s Pub, Fanore, and those who errected signage for the event.Plans are already underway for next year’s  Burren Walk for Missionvale.
