June 2024 Newsletter - Gaelic Games, Charity, and Dance

 

As we find ourselves midway through the season, with several games already etched into our season, we are excited to share exciting new developments to look forward to.

 

Gaelic Games in the DMV


We're delighted to share that our two summer home games will be at The Catholic University of America. This presents a fantastic opportunity to experience Gaelic Games in the DMV while also showing your support for the Washington DC Gaels. After all the on-field action has finished, we've reserved a space at Brookland Pint. We encourage you to bring your friends and family along for a memorable day out. For details on each fixture, please see the links below:

 

Washington D.C. Gaels ClubHub is now Live


What is ClubHub? This is an ordering system by O'Neill's that operates like an online store for 1-2 weeks at a time. The club uses this to give our members access to more bespoke apparel. O'Neill's makes everything to order and ships everything in bulk to ensure cost-effectiveness. The club receives the entire order and distributes it to those who purchased items.



How do I access the ClubHub? You can register here. Be sure to do so before it closes next Sunday, June 16th at midnight.
