Pictures #1: Encore! Castlecomer panto a delight for all

The past couple of years have been tough to say the least and it was wonderfully refreshing to have our Annual Panto back, writes Maurice Shortall.

Hats off to Deenside Players for an outstanding performance of Red Riding Hood in the Community Hall. With a record number of children taking part (Junior, Inter and Senior) and a debut for Katie Power plus the old reliables the audiences were treated to a superb panto.
