We are so looking forward to this Saturday's parkrun as the Ryan family do a volunteer take over. The extended Ryan family are taking over the main volunteer roles this week.
(Don't worry, there are still plenty of options to volunteer, and we never turn away a volunteer offer).
Two of the Ryan triplets, James & Jack, along with their friend Finlay are taking on this year's Dublin City Marathon and are hoping to raise much needed funds for Epilepsy Ireland in the process.
Why not come along and show your support to the lads by joining them this Sat for our weekly parkrun before they take on DCM.
RD Pedro is at the helm this week and he'll be delighted to have a full roster. So if you want to volunteer just pop a message her or on the WhatsApp group.
For anyone wishing to donate to the lads fundraiser, please see the link below!
