Large turnout for Eoghan Rua AGM
Thursday, 14 January 2010
THE first ever Annual General Meeting to be held in their new pavilion was attended by a large number of Eoghan Rua members last Sunday afternoon. Club members turned up in their numbers despite the inclement weather. It proved to be a rather low key affair as members took on board the reports presented by the club's secretary and treasurer.
Both reports indicated the club had completed a more than satisfactory season on and off the field of play. Meanwhile the club's chairman John Montgomery commended the senior teams and their coaches for the success they had brought to Eoghan Rua during 2009. He also praised the work being carried out at under-age level across all three codes not just in 2009 but in previous years, this ongoing work has led to the success in recent years on the field of play.
The chairman also referred to the completion of the club's new pavilion in March this year which, he said, was a significant milestone in Eoghan Rua's facilities development programme.
However the chairman did say that the Eoghan Rua club must continue to look to the future to ensure they maintain the progress that has been evident in recent years.
That view was echoed in the only motion brought to the Annual General Meeting for discussion. During his recent visit to Eoghan Rua the GAA President Christy Cooney recommended that the club should have a comprehensive Development Plan.
To that end the Eoghan Rua members unanimously supported a motion to convene a Development Day at which an inclusive and wide ranging consultation and discussion on the development of the club will take place.
