Speakers include Stuart Holly, Editor of The Clare Echo talking about survival of print media in this digital age; Andrew Cremin, Property Evaluator speaking about finding time to volunteer, is it worthwhile.

Everyone is welcome. Expect to be educated, inspired, and motivated as well as amused and entertained. Michael Shepherd, Ennis Rotary President said, “I anticipate lively discussions during the intervals, so come on out for some inspiring craic.” Refreshments available.
