Membership: Membership for 2016 is now due and can be paid to any club officer or online. The cost of membership is again very reasonably priced at €25 with a family membership option A priced at €60 and an option B priced at €85.
Volunteer Appeal: The evolution of the Club over the last number of year , in terms of its size and structures has led to an inequitable spread of the workload across the membership and placed a very heavy burden on certain individuals. In 2015 the Nenagh Éire Óg club catered for over 500 members and this continues to grow. This offers a huge opportunity to have many talented people currently associated with the Club to become more involved in the day to day running of club affairs so that fresh faces can bring fresh ideas forward. Whether you are currently involved with the club or on the periphery, we are actively seeking volunteers to come forward. People get involved in the club because they want to not because they have to, If you are interested in getting involved in any capacity call 0872850732, contact any club officer or email eireogneneagh@gmail.com.
Club Lotto: The Nenagh Éire Óg Club Lotto represents the club’s key fundraising initiative. Please consider supporting the Blues by playing our club lotto online: click here!
