Athlone GAA will host a 'One Club Celebration' dinner dance on Saturday, February 17, in the Sheraton Hotel and invite all past and present club members to celebrate what promises to be a fantastic occasion.
The evening will start with a drinks reception at 6.30pm, followed by a delicious four-course meal, before music and dancing until the wee hours. There will be live music from Bowtie, Mark Henshaw and Paul Fogarty, while DJ Dave will be spinning the discs late on.
Tickets are priced at €60 for general admission and €45 for students and can be purchased online. See the Athlone GAA Facebook page for details and links.
