Cycle For Dreams  

Massive Congratulations to Paraic Sullivan & Stephen Darby on their Massive achievement on cylcing 2000km over 5 days in Aid of Make A Wish Foundation & Rhode GAA. The Boys not just done themselves proud but they have done Rhode Parish Proud. The Support Both Men have received is truly unbelievable not just from people who donated but their fellow cyclists and team mates who made the Journey with them over the 5 days.     Both Stephen and Paraic received a heroes welcome when they arrived back into the village on Saturday evening after carrying out their final Leg. Both are extremely grateful for the massive Support they Received. See Next weeks notes for more on cycle and Monies Raised.

Stay Safe 

 

We hope all in our community are keeping safe and well. We urge you all to play your part in this war against the invisible virus. Please observe social distancing advice and follow guidance from government, HSE and reliable sources. There is much scaremongering and false information doing the rounds also, so be careful and use good judgement.  

Look after yourself, your family and your neighbors. Especially those who are at greater risk. If you or someone you know, needs some help with getting groceries or medication, speak to members of our club and we will do our best help out. 

 

 

 

Get well: 

Get well wishes are extended to all of the people of the parish who are ill or hospitalised at the moment especially Maggie Glennon. 

 

 

 

Sympathy 

 

Deepest Sympathy is extended to the Gorman Family on the Passing of Seamus Gorman MountMellick. Seamus is an Uncle of former Rhode Footballer & Manager Declan Gorman . 

May Seamus Rest In Peace.
