Lehanmore Triathlon

Lehanmore Triathlon was such a cool event, that was held in such a great friendly family atmosphere. The last of the events to be held at the Lehanmore festival after a few days of activities.  The way the participants performed was absolutely brilliant and great fun was had by all. I think the only drugs involved were the pints drank afterwards by the few competitors of an age old enough to consume a pint…

The race covered a route on the Wild Atlantic Way very close to the famous Dursey Island and its cable car. I am sure even Sonia O’Sullivan would have enjoyed this “ParkTri” type event and should sign up for the second one coming up in 2016

Lehanmore Festival Tag Rugby

Lehanmore Festival Tag Rugby played on the old pitch next to the ring fort below the community centre. Probably the toughest pitch in Ireland. The Wild Atlantic way between Castletownbere and Dursey Island and its Cable Car. The final match was between Paul O’Shea’s team and The Beara Joinery team and O’Shea took the prize. Well done to all for taking part on a tough afternoon.

Eyeries Family Festival

Eyeries Family Festival ran over the weekend of 17 – 19th of July 2015. It was a brilliant piece of organisation and I am sure all that attended for all or part of it had a great time. There were so many things to see and do that it would have been impossible to be everywhere. Well done to the committee of organisers. Many thanks also to their many sponsors the main sponsor being Marine Harvest.

Watch a video of the festival here (version two with Irish Dancing included and music).

The video was shot by Richie Hodges from Balooz with help from Senan O’Connor from Vantage Point Video. Sorry if we missed you, but as said above very difficult to do everything. (Just added some Irish dancing thanks to John Angles)
