Website and Blog for the Sam McMahon Trust

Friday July 17th turned out to be a great day for golf at Bodenstown Golf Club in the heart of county Kildare. Friends, family and members of the club rallied together to raise money for Sam and the Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA). The mature Bodenstown course, with its parkland layout, extensive trees and undulating greens posed a challenge to the teams of all abilities. A presentation took place later in the evening. President, Peadar Cunningham was on hand to congratulate the winners and to present them with superb prizes, organised by Sandra McKenna.

Many thanks are due to the gents and ladies committees for their support in organising this event and to Lady Captain, Phil Duggan and Gents Vice-Captain Christy Cullen for their presence on the day. Particular thanks go to Fergus Egan, Clare Egan, Maura Higgins and Vivienne Bond for their assistance and help throughout the event. The day would not have been the same without the generous support of sponsors who provided refreshments, sponsored holes and donated prizes.
