Easter Monday last week, the Family Addiction Support Network hosted the second annual Open Garden Day, Car Boot Sale & Rubber Duck Race at the beautiful gardens of Brendan & Jackie McKenna, Muff, Kingscourt, Co Cavan. A great crowd supported the event which was organized by the Family Addiction Support Network.
Festivities began at 2pm with a scenic stroll around the garden full of colour where new life and was guaranteed to lift the spirits! One could then meander through the bric a brac stalls in the hope of acquiring a satisfying bargain and quench their hunger pangs in Bella’s Kitchen with delicious homemade cakes, pastries, and exotic cheesecakes.
Dudley Farrell, MC for the Duck Race kept the crowd entertained with jokes, spot prizes and exciting commentary as hundreds of little plastic ducks were tumbled over the bridge into the river and jostled each other for the winning positions. 1st Prize “The Quickest Quacker Cup” and €40 voucher went to Roisin McKenna, 1st Prize in the Garden Quiz went to Audrey Frazer and the winner of the Easter Egg Count was Donna Kierans
