Another Ahakista Festival weekend over and, in spite of the weather putting a dampner on the Family Fun Day and the Water Sports, it seems a very good time was had by all. Our sponsors (see below) responded generously to the call for an extra push this year in support of the Community Centre build and we offer them our heartfelt thanks. Without their unstinting participation each year the Bank Holiday weekend in Ahakista would look very different. We must also thank the Durrus Road Bowling Club who ran a great event and gave generously to the cause. The Sheep's Head Sea Scouts must also get a mention for their hugely successful Ball Run. As for the many volunteers who donate freely of their time and energy to make the Festival happen each year, Ahakista salutes you!

Thanks to the dogs, to the owners, to Barbara Scully for compering, to Siobhan Leipert for judging. To The Pet Shop in Bantry, to Fachtna Collins Vetinary, and to Tiesel for being Tiesel and thus earning the freedom of Ahakista. It was a great Dog Show and a great day. Congratulations one and all!
