THE DIRECTORY
Welcome to this Directory of clubs in the Cappoquin area. Cappoquin Civic Link has decided to compile this as part of our aim of improving communication between all the groups in the area. Other communities in the county, such as An Rinn and Portlaw have compiled more elaborate directories, but this is our first attempt and with your feedback, we can improve it the next time. If there are any errors or omissions, please let us know and we will correct them for the next issue. Thanks very much to all the contributors, for their co-operation in compiling this.
