This is the 3rd year we have a Dog Show as part of the day and it has proved a great attraction. Contact Tom McCann regarding the show 087 417 9175.
If you are free on the day we in the SMA would greatly appreciate your support and having an opportunity to greet and meet you. If you would like to lend a hand at helping to run an activity or serve at a stall, even for an hour, please contact us - we would appreciate all the help we can get.
Unwanted or second hand material (in good condition) can be handed into the House beforehand. Baking a cake is always a popular means of help. Fliers with fuller information on the day are available in our House.
As space on our grounds is at a premium on the day, we would appreciate if cars could park in the facilities available outside our premises. No parking space is far from the House and stewards will be on hand on the day to help you.
Admission is free and all the proceeds of the day go towards our missionary work in Africa
