Club Officer Training
On September 19th and 20st Devil’s Bit Macra committee officers travelled to the Radisson Blu Hotel Limerick to take part in Club Officer training. This was a weekend which involved our officers attending talks on their role within the club, team building discussions as well as setting up an imaginary macra club and carrying out a club meeting. This gave everyone suggestions for encouraging all members to share their thoughts in meetings. Devil’s Bit Macra members picked up some useful advice and tips during the weekend which they can use within the club. Thanks to all our members who attended the training.
