This Friday, 12th November, East Tyrone Comhairle Ceantair will be hosting a Dinner Dance to celebrate republican escapes through the decades. The event will take place in the Ryandale, Moy, and will begin at 8pm sharp. Special quests include many escapees from the various prisons. Tickets are limited, and are priced at £25.00Speaking on the event cuige Uladh organiser, Padraig Quinn had this to say:
"Ógra have played a vital role in the planning of this event, and because of this I feel it is very important that our activists make every effort to attend.
"Many of those who escaped where incarcerated at an extremely young age, not much older than many of our members, and I think it’s important to put that into context with events like this, as if it wasn’t for our pows and Vol. we would not be able to continue the struggle in the manner we do today."The Dinner Dance plans to be a light hearted celebration of not only the various escapees but a celebration of the fact that despite countless methods, the British government could never label our fight for freedom as criminal.
"Whilst there will be a strong contingent from Ógra Shinn Féin cumainn throughout the O'Neill county at this event we wish to extend the invitation to other Ógra or indeed Sinn Féin activists.
