Write a commentHuge numbers of GAA fans from throughout county Armagh are expected at the first ever combined County Armagh GAA fun walk and annual open day organised by the County Board, which will allow supporters and local media to mingle with their inter-county heroes ahead of this year's championship games.
The fun run will raise much-needed funds to improve our games at county level in all codes. This great event will take place on 5th May 2014. Those who attended the open day last year were more than delighted with what was on offer. One fan summed up the success of last year's event with these words on the Armagh County Forum, '…….thanks to the Amagh County Board, Players and Management for the successful open night, a PR master-class, and what lovely bunch of lads on the senior teams.'
You can also play your part. If you would like to participate in the Fun Walk by signing up though the County Office administrator.armagh@gaa.ie or Tel: 028 3752 7278.
The county players and management will give generously of their time and their goodwill by signing autographs galore and fielding questions from a host of media reporters and fans eager to find out what the feeling in the camp is with the Cavan game imminent.
There really will be something for all the family with; tours of the entire Athletic ground's facilities, a quiz, penalty kick competitions, goodie bags, team photographs for autograph hunters, face painting, prize draws as well as an opportunity for the media to meet the senior county players and management. Armagh TV will record the highlights but as the saying goes, 'Nothing beats being there'.
For a small donation you can place your or a friend's name on our big screen and this will be displayed on our moving strap-line on our multi-media Big Screen for the rest of this year's senior county season. Please contact county office administrator.armagh@gaa.ie or Tel: 028 3752 7278.
The Armagh County Board look forward to seeing all at this year's open day & fun walk on the 5thth May 2014 from 11.00 a.m.
