SCARIFF BAY COMMUNITY RADIO presenters are headed for the hills while others will get to soak up a feast of traditional music.

This Thursday evening (May 18th), Scariff GAA is joining forces with Scariff Bay Community Radio for a night of traditional music. Ceol Cรณis Grรฉine will present the concert titles โ€˜East Clare Legacyโ€™ and will feature Clรญ Donnellan, Brid Oโ€™Gorman, Liam Flanagan and Michael Landers.

Taking place at the Derg Active Alliance Theatre from 8pm, tickets are available for โ‚ฌ10 from Rodgerโ€™s Centra in Scariff, from GAA officers and volunteers with the community radio station. Funds raised will go towards both the GAA club and Scariff Bay Community Radio.

On Sunday afternoon, Scariff Bay will broadcast โ€˜A Hike on the Hillsโ€™ which is a detailed look at the popular 12 Oโ€™Clock Hills. Pat Oโ€™Brien, David Fleming and Anthony Lenihan learn about the history of the recreational and heritage project which opened as a looped walk facility in September 2014.

They commence their journey at the Belvoir car park where they meet committee members John Lenihan and John Lyons to learn about the projectโ€™s inception, how the name came about and the history of its inhabitants.

Wind, rain and sunshine were all encountered as the trio made their way up the hill, respites were had at Crag Bridge, the stepping stones and Fairyland along the way. They also stopped off at the Sunyata Buddhist Centre.

Sundayโ€™s show will be broadcast on Scariff Bay Community Radio at 3pm and will then be available on all podcast platforms.
