AN HISTORIC CLUB WITH A MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN PARKLAND SETTING SINCE 1893

The annual Marie Curie Classic took place on Thursday 26 June, a few weeks later than planned due to the course having been closed on the day it was originally scheduled and, in stark contrast to that day, the weather was glorious. The competition was once again sponsored by Rice's Supermarket, Keady, who have been associated with the charity for many years.
