Write a commentThe annual "Hooley around Cooley" 62k fundraising Cycle for the Craobh Rua Hurling Club Camlocha which takes place on Sunday the 28th of September was recently launched at The Quays Centre in Newry.
Now in its second year, the Cycle commences at the Craobh Rua Clubrooms (on Highstreet Hill, close to Bessbrook Mill Complex & the Community Centre) with registration beginning at 9am and the Cycle start at 10am. The course takes the cyclist into Newry past the Quays Shopping Centre towards Omeath and Carlingford. There will be a "pit stop" at the Lumpers in Ravensdale, then it's on through Ravensdale, Flurrybridge into Meigh village and home run to Camlough village, past Dans Bar and back to the Club Rooms for well earned Chicken Curry & Rice.
Over a hundred cyclists participated (seasoned and not so seasoned) last year and all enjoyed it. Entrance fee is £10 with any funds made going to Craobh Rua to help continue our work with developing the game of hurling within the community. The Craobh Rua committee appreciate the continued support of The Quays Newry, Peter Quinn and Euro Services, BCC Camloch and all our local Cycling Clubs and Hurling Club members.
