To help us all create the perfect stick, there are a number of events to note in your calendar:
- February 6 – Workshop – Tom Kavanagh’s Home, Clonsast, Rathangan, Co Kildare, 11 am
- February 13 – Workshop – Scout Hall, Toher, Co Cork, 11 am
- February 28 – Get-together – O’Loughlins Hotel, Portlaoise, Co Laois, – including a stickmaker’s competition!

We have invited our stickmaking friends from Northern Ireland to join us and swap ideas. I encourage everyone to bring a stick or two or three on the day!
