The Synge Street PPU golf society celebrated their 75th anniversary in Grange Golf Club on Thursday, 14th September by playing for our Captain’s (Pat Campbell) prize.

We had a very successful outing with 33 people playing and 31 sitting for dinner , including our special guest, School Principal Clare Catterson.

As always we are indebted to our sponsors, notably Cathal McCarthy of DNG, Damien Byrne, Paul Brennan and Paddy Murphy.

Many thanks to all for your support on the day and for contributing so generously to the raffle which raised €850 and when added to the raffle proceeds from our earlier outing in Castle G.C will allow us to donate approx €2000 this year to provide much needed support to School projects.

Finally Pat Campbell announced that John White had accepted the role of Captain for the coming year and we wish John every success in 2024.
