The Society presented the Irish premiere of Calendar Girls the Musical in the Magherabuoy Hotel, Portrush, back in February 2022. The group was nominated for Outstanding Production in the Ireland and Wales section of NODA and were delighted to win the award.

A total of 16 members of the society made the trip over to Newport for the gala dinner and it was certainly worth the journey!
