We apologise for the loss of the webpage in recent weeks. We were changing the server and it took longer than expected. We have made some changes to the design which I hope you will like.
Our next project is to install the past pupils of our National Schools. Some of the work is already completed but there is still a lot to do. Many of the records are not immediately available. When completed we hope to include class photos. We already have some from pre 1914. If anyone has a class photo we would love to include it. Send it by Email or to The Meadow, Kilmihil. We promise to return everything.
Meanwhile we wish everyone a very happy Easter.
Kilmihil Youth Club hosted a basketball competition on Friday 23rd March. Other clubs that attended included Kilrush, Cooraclare, Kilnamona and Kilnaboy. A great night of sport was enjoyed, unfortunately Kilmihil was not successful.
The club also broke up for the year on Friday night. Best wished were extended to those members who are doing exams in June. The club had a busy year and next year we hope to compete in even more events.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in September and new members are always welcome.
As with all clubs, helpers are always needed, so anyone who wishes to give help out on the night would be greatly
