Coláiste Bhríde Golf Classic The superb Coollattin Golf course looked its very best on Friday, 14th June when, for the nineteenth annual Golf Classic which was organised by the Coláiste Bhríde Parents’ Council. Each year the preparation for this classic and the array of prizes are top class and this year was no exception. Thirty-eight teams teed off and it was a special treat to have the club Presidents and Captains playing on the day. Sincere appreciation must go to main sponsors, The Ashdown and Amber Springs Hotels, Candys Carnew, Corrells Topline Carnew, Uniforms Direct Baltinglass. Thank you to the many other sponsors and supporters who were named in the club house on the day. The continued support from students and parents, past and present and all who put out teams on the day is exceptional. Funds raised at the golf classic will go towards providing opportunities and activities for students that parents would otherwise have to pay for directly. Management and staff of Coláiste Bhríde are truly grateful to all concerned. The commitment of our Parents’ Council ensured the success of this very fine golf classic. They are planning and look forward to another great day next June, when hopefully the sun will shine for them!
