Sult na Sollán - Celebrating 4 years of success!

GAEILGE  (English below)

Tá Sult na Sollán ag céiliúradh ceithre bliana d'aois ár n-eagrais! Ceithre bliana ó shin, d'eagraigh Comhairle Pobal na Sollán feachtas bosca poist le fiosrú an raibh spéis ag pobal na Sollán sa chultúr traidisiúnta nó sa Ghaeilge. Ba é sin an tús agus le ceithre bliana anuas tá Sult na Sollán ag dul ó neart go neart - cuireadh tús le dhá ghrúpa ceoil traidisiúnta a bhíonn ag seinnt go rialta sa tsráidbhaile, bhí dhá chúrsa de ranganna Ghaeilge do dhaoine fásta i rith gach ceann de na tíi bliana seo caite, agus bíonn ciorcal comhrá rialta againn a bhuaileann le chéile gach maidin Shathain ag 11.00r.n. i mbialann Alice's i Nás na Ríogh. I rith na mblianta, eagraíodh go leor imeachtaí clainne & ceardlanna agus is minic go raibh trácht agus tuairisc ar Sult na Solán sna meáin áitiúla, gan trácht ar TG4!

Tá sé in am dúinn sin ar fad a chéiliúradh!!! Bígí linn i Flanagan's Mill Dé hAoine, 28 Meitheamh le neart foinn, neart bia agus deoch no dhó, b'fhéidir! Déanfar céiliúradh ar a bhfuil bainte amach againn le ceithre bliana anuas, agus breathnóimid ar aghaidh ag súil le hiomaí bliain mhaith eile! Cuirfear fáilte roimh gach éinne, ach go háirithe ceolteoirí, amhránaithe & rinceoirí gur mhaith leo suí isteach linn.
Agus...ar eagla  nach féidir libh fanacht go dtí 28 Meitheamh...sin go breá toisc go mbeidh Sult ag seinnt i seisiún beag Dé hAoine seo, 7 Meitheamh sa Railway Inn ó 9.00i.n....Tá fáilte romhat suí isteach linn!
ENGLISH
Sult na Sollán is celebrating it's fourth birthday! Four years ago, a letter box campaign by Sallins Community Council, set out to see if there were people in the Sallins area that were interested in promoting & celebrating Irish culture and the Irish language in our community. That was the start of something special as, over the last four years, Sult na Sollán have gone from strength to strength - we have set-up two Irish trad bands that play regularly in the village, we have run two terms of Irish language classes for adults for each of the last three years, and we host a weekly Irish language breakfast conversation group, every Saturday morning in Alice's restaurant in Naas from 11am.  Over the years we have also run lots of different family events and workshops and Sult na Sollán has been regularly featured in the local media, and of course on TG4!
It's time to celebrate!!!   Join us in Flanagan's Mill on Friday 28th June from 9pm until late for a feast of tunes, some food and perhaps a drink or two! Let's celebrate the last four years and look ahead to many more good years ahead! All very welcome, especially musicians, singers & dancers that want to join in.
And...in case you can't wait until June 28th.....that's perfectly ok because Sult will be having a little session this coming Friday, 7th June in the Railway Inn from 9pm...You're welcome to come along and join us!

June Gardening Tips
If you treated your lawn last month with a selective broadleaf weedkiller such as Verdun you should now have a healthy looking lawn. It is a good time to apply a slow release summer feed to keep the lawn green and healthy. It is exceptionally dry at the moment so make sure to water your hanging baskets and pot plants every day. In the greenhouse tomato plants will be growing vigourously. Tie them into bamboo support poles and pinch out any side shoots keeping the plant to one main stem to prevent from bushing which will reduce fruit yield. Courgettes should be cropping well. Squashes and cucumbers should also be coming on. Train them to grow up string supports suspended from a support wire. All greenhouse plants should be watered regularly and fed daily once they start to crop. Plant out fresh lettuce plantlets to keep a supply to harvest for next month. Strawberrys should be well watered. Rasberries should be tied into a bamboo framework. Potatos should be footed up. Keep an eye out for greenfly on roses and treat if necessary.
