Barróg don Ghaeilge: Seachtain na Gaeilge
Report: Pub Quiz 14/3/24
We had a fantastic evening at our Pub quiz on Thurs 14th March as part of our Seachtain na Gaeilge/ 50th Anniversary celebrations. We estimate that we had about 100 attendees. A big thank you to Donncha Ó Cathasaigh (from Bayside Pop Up) for acting as the quiz master, to Austin Keegan for generating and presenting the quiz questions and to the members of the Irish language committee for all the work on the night. Ashley Sheridan and Wingman donated the food on the night and Micheál Mac Donncha and Donncha Ó Cathasaigh supplied spot prizes. These spot prizes will be used at future POP Ups in Naomh Barróg. A grant from Conradh na Gaeilge “Ciste Spreagtha 2024” fund was used to purchase prizes for the winners of the quiz. Fergus O’Brien of Brenfer Jewellers generously donated a trophy to each of the winners.
Tuairisc: Tráth na gCeist 14/3/24
Bhí oíche den scoth againn ag an Tráth na gCeist (Déardaoin 14ú Márta) mar chuid dár gceiliúradh “Seachtain na Gaeilge” agus “50 Bliain”. Measaimid go raibh thart ar 100 duine i láthair. Míle buíochas do “fear an tí” Dhonncha Ó Cathasaigh (ó Pop Up Cois Bá), do Austin Keegan as ucht na gceisteanna a cruthú agus a chur i láthair agus do bhaill an choiste Gaeilge as an obair ar fad ar an oíche. Bhronn Ashley Sheridan agus Wingman an bia dúinn ar an oíche agus thúg Micheál Mac Donncha agus Donncha Ó Cathasaigh duaiseanna dúinn. Bainfear úsáid as na spotduaiseanna seo ag na “POP Up” anseo i Naomh Barróg. Bhí deontas ó “Ciste Spreagtha 2024” againn chun duaiseanna a cheannacht do na bhuaiteoirí. Bhronn Fergus O’Brien ó Brenfer Jewelers trófaí ar gach ceann de na buaiteoirí.
