A Night to Remember – Mayo Dragons Celebrate 10 Years

On Saturday, July 12th, Graine Mhaol Dragon Boat Club proudly marked its 10th anniversary with a fantastic celebration at Castlebar Tennis Club. The evening was filled with fun and plenty of nostalgia as past and present members gathered to toast a decade of paddling, camaraderie and community spirit.

Councillor Michael Kilcoyne and his wife attended the evening and joined in the celebrations.

The event featured a Prosecco drinks reception, delicious food, a special club presentation, and lively music that kept the celebrations going. It was a wonderful chance to reconnect, reflect and celebrate how far the club has come — especially with this year marking the highest number of members in the club’s history.

We also took time earlier in the day to honour the occasion out on the water — and the weather was divine – great for taking photos.

A huge thank you to Frank Fullard for capturing both the evening’s festivities and the morning paddle. The photos will give us lasting memories of a very special day.

A huge thanks to the amazing organisers and Yvonne Kilcullen Events who helped make this celebration such a success — there are too many to name, but your hard work is appreciated.

Here’s to the next 10 years of dragon boating, friendships and milestones!
