We know it's a yawn but it's that time of year again ...

Remember what assistant treasurer Micheál Burke told us at the AGM 'Membership is a requirement not an option for active members'.

Membership fees are now due and remain at the same good value as last year. The simplest and easiest way to pay is to check in to the website at www.mullingarshamrocks.com and follow the instructions there on the home page or check in to the Mullingar Shamrocks App and it is all there on the lead article.

The relevant fees are as follows:

Full Membership: (Over-18 years of age with full voting rights at AGM and eligible to play and hold positions in club), €50.

Social Membership/Youth Membership/Full-time 3rd level Student Membership: (Eligible to participate in all club social activities and includes playing membership for Youth members and Full-Time 3rd level students). €30.

Family Membership: (2x adult social membership and juvenile registration for children), €100.

Fitness Centre membership is not included in any of the above. Contact Seán Hynes (087-9173891) for membership details or to make an appointment to view the facilities.
