Letter from the Crowley Clan Taoiseach

I would like to thank everyone for their trust in me making me their new Taoiseach. Thank you also to Tom Crowley for all he has done for the cause of the Crowley Clan. The Bantry gathering and the 209 people at the banquet were a measure of the work Tom has put into the Crowley Clan. Tom has told me he will work with us any way he can for the future. I was sorry we had no general meeting for people to air their views on the castle project.

I have also given Marian a treasurer's report. We had to cover the cost of the engineers' report on the castle that amounted to €3872.00 from the gathering funds.

The Crowley Clan Council met on September 17th in Dunmanway. The new officers are: Taoiseach Liam Crowley, Tanaiste Marian Crowley Chamberlain, Runai John Crowley (Bantry), Cisteoir Flor Crowley (Bandon) and Ann Crowley (Bandon). Council members are: Charles Crowley (Bandon), Jerry Crowley (Bandon), Larry Crowley (Bandon), Kitty Crowley Horgan (Bandon), Tom Crowley (Ohio, USA), Vincent Crowley (Bantry), Seamus Crowley (Mallow), and Betty Lordan (London, England). Dr. Sean Crowley (Waterfall) has retired. Sean has been a very active member for a long number of years and is a past Taoiseach.

Finally, I hope everyone enjoyed the gathering in Bantry.
