A special word of thanks to Quizmaster Eamon Brennan who did a great job and kept the children very entertained on the evening, to the volunteers who helped out and to our ever dependable secretary Shirley who as always, ensured that everything ran like clockwork. A sincere word of thanks also, to Midland Trophies for sponsoring the trophies for the quiz and to Edward and the Rustic Inn staff for their warm hospitality in hosting the quiz.
Last but certainly not least, thank you to the parents who travelled to the competition. It was easy to see that the quiz was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Well done to all of the teams that took part. The great news this year is that two teams can go forward to the Nationals.
Best of luck to Longford South and Colmcille who will now represent Longford at the National Finals in Kilkenny in June.
