with Black Belt Andre Ramos

Welcoming

new members to with Black Belt Andre Ramos starting

Well known as the most efficient grappling martial art and combat sport that focuses on ground fighting with the goal of gaining; Dominant position and using joint-locks and chokeholds to force an opponent to submit.

It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant.

Regardless of strength, size, or previous training, anyone can learn effective submission techniques. Nothing feels better than knowing you can take care of yourself mentally and physically.

We will continue to progress the levels of training throughout the year.

Climb for Sick Kids 2016

Thanks to everyone who donated to this great charity. The overall event was a fantastic success and the final total is yet to be announced. ?250 was raised from the donation bucket in the main ESB Networks canteen and the small kitchen in Wilton.

Thanks,

Sinead

Over the 1st weekend of September, members of Cork City and County Fire Brigades assisted by Gardai and HSE Ambulance service will carry out a ladder climb to reach the heights of Mount Everest. The climb will be facilitated by a group of emergency service personnel visiting all 23 towns that have fire stations in Cork City and County.

The climb will move from town to town collecting money through sponsorship cards, selling unique collection of once off tie pins from all the services involved to commemorate the event. A bank account for this event is set up in the name of “Climbing for sick kids” under the Cork City Fire Brigade Sports and Social club. Sort code 91-41-78 Acc 77148324

All money raised will go directly to a great charity that has helped member’s families over the years, “Cork City Hospitals Children’s Club”. A committee representing various organisations have been set up to oversee the running of the event, comprising of local representatives who will be collecting and fundraising for this event.

For every ?995 raised, a sick child can enjoy a break to Euro Disney which will hopefully bring a smile back on their courageous faces while undergoing or post treatment.

There is a bucket for collection in the canteen in Wilton.

PLEASE PLEASE DONATE TO THIS VERY WORTHY CAUSE.

My brother in law works with Cork City Fire Brigade and is very involved with this event.

Thanking you in advance J

This year, the annual event takes place on Friday, September 16 with cultural organisations and venues extending their opening hours to allow visitors a unique insight into some of Ireland’s most iconic buildings and cultural work.
