Donegal Bowling
The Donegal Bowling team is still going strong and having a great time. They play every Wednesday evening at Playhouse lanes on .
The team bowled against Cavan on Sunday December 14. A good time was had by all, and the Donegal team came out the winner over Cavan.
Anyone interesting in joining the bowling league, please contact Nora Campbell.
