Debating Summer Party

Thursday, 19th May, was the date of the Debating Society's traditional end-of-year summer party. Everyone had a great time thanks to the organisational/shopping skills of Ms McGrath and Mr Hopkins, which was very much appreciated by all members of the society (but probably not by their teeth)!

Outgoing Auditor Ciara Gorman gave her closing speech and presented the newly engraved Auditor's Invitational Trophy to winners Aodhán Peelo and Peter Murphy (1st Prop). Declan King claimed Best Individual. Congratulations to them and all the Senior speakers who took part. Commemorative plaques were also presented to Peter and Deirdre McGuane, our two Sixth Year students, as they were made honorary lifelong members of the CCC Debating Society. We wish them all the best in college and the future, and thank them for all the support and fine speeches they have given to the Society during their time in CCC.

Ciara was presented with The Bell as a commemorative of her year as Auditor as she welcomed the Incoming Auditor Aodhán Peelo to his inaugurational meeting. The Incoming Deputy Auditor is Ellen Murphy and she succeeds the current Deputy Auditor Daire Boyle. 

The Society will reconvene in September 2011 and we hope to see everyone back again. :)
