Fun Fundraiser for Mental Health Association South Tipperary Mental Health Association was set up in 1992 to help people with health problems and to promote a positive attitude towards mental health. In many ways the Mental Health Association is a back up to the Mental Health Services by organising funding for holidays, outings, dances and recreational events. In other ways the association works in partnership projects such as the Cluain Training Centre which was set up in Clonmel. Another project planned for the future is the setting up of a twelve person high support residence which will be staffed by personnel from the Mental Health Association. The association also support a positive approach to mental health by organising talks, supporting public speaking in secondary schools, and initiating the Mental Health Matters Programme and booklet. South Tipperary Mental Health Association would like to thank all who supported their fundraiser in Butler's Bar and will make sure the money goes to good use. St Vincent de Paul Appeal All the money we spend is donated to us locally and when we have completed our annual accounts in January we will publish the details of how your money is spent. We have a hardworking and considerate team of helpers who provide a completely confidential service in the tradition of our founder Blessed Frederick Ozanam. In summary then our work is well known (though confidential), our assistance is available to those who require it, our accounts are open and transparent, our motto is to turn no person away if we can help them, but we depend on you the public to help us to help others. You have always responded with a level of generosity which humbles us all. We are confident that 2007 will be no different. Thank you in advance.

Congratulations to Loughmore / Castleiney on winning the Munster Club Senior Hurling Final in Limerick on Sunday last on a scoreline, Loughmore 1-6, Tulla (Clare) 0-7. Celebrating 70 Years with the Ursuline Order Fethard and District Rugby Club Hunting News Horse and Jockey on Wednesday provided an excellent thirty minutes of hound work in the small plantation by the Derrynaflan Road. The fox eventually left and was hunted back to the Jockey where hounds were stopped approaching the main Dublin road. Foxes were very hared to come by in the furze plantations, most proving blank. From St. Johnstown on Thursday the valley under the Kilkennybeg road kept hounds busy. Hunting well in patchy scent they marked two brace to ground. From the laurels at Mortlestown they ran to the Newline road and back to cover. From Quigley’s hounds were hunting on when their fox got to ground near Rathmoley. The day concluded with a very fast twenty minutes from Ms Anna Skehan’s to Coolagh and right-handed through O’Donnell’s and on to Anglim’s where they checked and were stopped in fast fading light at 4.30pm. Graduated Recently With the White Heather Harriers From Ballyluskey on Sunday last hounds and huntsmen did their very best in impossible conditions. Very high winds and driving hard rain showers played ‘Molly Bawn’ with whatever little scent there was. Hounds persevered throughout and, to the credit of the hounds and hunters, did succeed in marking three to ground.
