To mark the occasion, an extended weekend of celebration of club and community culture is planned. It’s all based around the first weekend of September - the weekend of the All Ireland Hurling Final and Na Fianna invites all to be part of the celebrations. It’s going to be a great weekend, and there will be something for everyone young and old, club members past and present and members of the extended Na Fianna local community. Na Fianna will remember and honour those who played a part in making this great club and those who today continue on the proud traditions and represent Na Fianna at all levels on all fields. Special guests, exhibition matches, team catch-ups and a general good time will be at the centre of a huge weekend’s activities. The organisers, who have put together a comprehensive programme, see next page, hope to see as many as possible making it to the club over the weekend to enjoy Na Fianna’s 60th Celebrations with friends, family and the wider Na Fianna community.
