Saturday 22nd - Monday 24th October 2011
The stage is set, our wonderful village green surrounded by 52 chestnut trees. Come and be a spectator at the 11th Irish Conker Championships and have a wonderful day of entertainment for free or enter the Battle of Conkers to become the 11th crowned champion. But be warned you’ll become a child again! Competing leads tounexpected emotions - anxiety, bravery, nerves, exhilaration, competitiveness and pride.
October 24th has competitions for individuals of all ages, a nutty team championship for four and a packed programme of events catering for all interests. The weekend promises exhibitions, performances, workshops, cooking, great food, storytelling, an organised walk, music, markets, games and stalls. Check out the website for all the workshop schedules and free children’s events. Weather permitting this is an outdoor event so dress appropriately but there's also plan B!
