As we come to the end of Feis Maitiú, 2024, it is important to thank all who have played a part in the success of this year’s Festival. First of all, thank you to ALL the performers and their families for supporting our event. You should be so proud of what you have achieved. Thanks to the teachers for training the performers so well and for making it such a wonderful Feis.
Thanks also to our great team of accompanists and our band of adjudicators.
A special and particular thank you to the stewards who gave so freely of their time and efforts which allowed the Feis to take place. Thank you also to our many TY students who brought a new dynamic and energy to the Father Mathew Hall.
A very special thank you to our founders and principal patrons the Capuchin Order.
Finally thank you to the members of the Advisory Board, the Executive and especially our Finance Officer who worked so hard to ensure that the Feis could go ahead as planned.
I hope you all take away many happy memories of some special occasions and that you will look back on the 2024 Feis with joy and pride.
Though the Father Mathew Hall falls silent for the holiday period, please know that we are looking to 2025 with new hope and vigor. We still need a lot more help in many areas and I do hope that this will happen over the next few months. So please, please think how you can further support the Feis with your time and especially with your particular unique skills.
I wish everyone a very happy and restful holiday period.
Tim.
