Barn Dance & BBQ - a fundraiser and a bit of craic!

On Saturday 26th May Sandyford will come alive to the sounds of a Barn Dance and BBQ in the farmyard at Woodside House, not far from Lamb Doyles. There's live music, dancing, a bucking bronco, BBQ grub, prosecco bar, gin bar, and a regular bar bar. Enjoy your meal in the sun, but plenty of indoor space when the sun goes in. Fun from 8pm until late.

All proceeds from the night go to a Trust Fund for my brother Ciaran's son, Oisin Greenan, now a lovely 7 year old boy, who was born with profound brain injury and suffers with many disabilities including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and scoliosis. He needs a lot of special equipment and therapy sessions, and the HSE only cover so much. Friends established a Trust Fund for Oisin and monies raised to date have, amongst other things, enabled a sensory area to be built for his bedroom, and paid for an 'Eye Gaze' interactive learning / communication centre. He has also been able to attend weekly therapy sessions with a great speech and language therapist and OT team, where is is making progress communicating with his family, and very importantly he can live at home with his family. Despite his disabilities he’s a happy little boy. We would be delighted if you come & join us to support Oisin whilst also enjoying yourselves at a great night. It's a big volunteer effort - the band (The Nuts), the caterers, the bar staff, etc. all give their time.

It’s an over 18's ticket-only event - no tickets on the night. Tickets are €25 and include a BBQ meal and live music.

There some photos of past events and details on tickets here - barndance.droppages.com
If you're on Facebook ping me at kgreenan for an invite with more info.

If you are available I'd love to see you there. More fun with a gang - maybe an excuse for an early summer Epic social? Swap that helmet for a stetson! Give me a shout for any tickets - 086 172 1864, or at Leadmines on Thursday,. I've no doubt you'd have a fun night and it's a great cause.

Thanks for reading, and apologies for the spam.

Great idea but unfortunately I’m away on a stag that weekend myself.
Great cause to support and would be a great social outing too.
You can donate to a very worthy cause too.
Thanks a mil guys. There should be some familiar faces amongst the crowds - from GAP, Giants, MX ..
