Mitchelburne make presentation to the Apprentice Boys Benevolent Fund

On Monday 27th December 2014 at the monthly meeting of the Mitchelburne Parent Club the Worthy President Bro Kenny Kincaid (centre) presented a cheque for £1,500 to representatives of the Apprentice Boys Benevolent Fund.

The money was raised at various events throughout the year organised by the Mitchelburne Parent Club to celebrate the 300th Anniversary of the Formation of the Apprentice Boys Association by Col John Mitchelburne.  Some of the events included Bro Connor McKnight’s participation in the 2014 Walled City Marathon and the Parent Club’s challenge to climb to the peak of Sawel Mountain.

The cheque presentation is the culmination to the year of  festivities organised by the Mitchelburne Parent Club to commemorate the Tercentenary of the founding of the Association.
