The official opening of the stand at the Milford GAA pitch took place on Saturday evening where Donegal GAA Manager Jim McGuinness cut the tape to perform the official opening.

A large crowd enjoyed an afternoon of Gaelic games and the first team to represent the club thirty years ago were also honoured.

Also to receive presentations were the first club committee along with others who have served the club well down the years.

The afternoon began with the U8 blitz, followed by the blessing of the stand by Fr. James Gillespie and Canon Harry Gilmore.

Next up was the final and semi finals of the U10 parish league which was won by the team captained by Shane Black before the Gaelic for Mothers team took to the pitch.

After the club’s senior game against Moville a DVD of the Junior Final victory a few weeks ago over Urris was shown in Dustys Bar followed by traditional music until late.
