Successful AGM for Cuige Uladh

Ógra Shinn Fein held their Uladh Cuige A.G.M. on Saturday. The day began with a leadership briefing from Mary McArdle. This was followed by publicity training and the release of the Ógra Shinn Féin publicity pack. With the update and training complete the meeting commenced. Outgoing officers gave their reports on the years activity and events and the new officer board was elected.

The day concluded with the launch of the Ógra Shinn Fein Basque DVD and a Basque / Irish Night in Conway Mill.

Speaking following the AGM Johnny McGibbon said he was happy with the days proceedings

“The Uladh AGM went very well. We now have in place a new officerboard for the upcoming year and I have every confidence in that board to produce results for Ógra not only in terms of Uladh but also nationally.

The Basque/Irish night was also a major success with a large crowd in attendance including many Basques, now living in Ireland. The links between Irish Republicans and the Basques continue to strengthen at this, a time of huge repression in the Basque country”
