Volunteers representing over 40 local clubs and organisations from Mountmellick, Clonaslee, Rosenallis, and Rathangan gathered between 7–8pm for light refreshments.
Attendees also availed of a photo opportunity to mark their receipt of Community Fund support.
The fund, approved by Mountmellick Credit Union's members at the most recent AGM, helps a wide range of social, cultural and sporting groups within the Credit Union’s common bond.
Each group received a modest donation to support projects, events, or ongoing upkeep.
