Derry County Chairman, John Keenan, was a special guest on a night that also included a congratulatory video message from First Minister Michelle O’Neill. Another special guest was Club Trustee Ciaran Burke, whose father, Sammy, started the original ‘Waterside Gaelic Park Fund’ in 1944, Ciaran travelling from his home in Spain to give a talk to the packed auditorium on the history of Gaelic Games in the Waterside. Photographer Tom Heaney was also present to capture just a little of what proved a very memorable evening…..
