D.E.W. Visitor Centre Ideal Venue for BBQ
14th July 2014
The Tullamore & District Chamber BBQ took place last Saturday evening at the Tullamore D.E.W. Visitor Centre on the boardwalk at Bury Quay.
With a relaxed atmosphere and summer sunshine, members of the local business community were greeted with an ‘Apple D.E.W’ cocktail and later enjoyed a sumptuous outdoor feast. Tullamore D.E.W. Visitor Centre chefs cooked up a selection of meats generously provided by Hanlon’s Butchers, breads from O’Donohues Bakery and deserts sponsored by Pallas Foods & Anne Starling. The guests were treated to some sleight of hand magic trick from Anthony O'Connor.
The night was organized by the Tullamore Chamber to show their appreciation from individuals, businesses and community groups for their voluntary work and cooperation to constantly strive to improve the economic and social aspects of Tullamore. Many thanks the sponsors Tullamore D.E.W. Visitor Centre, Hanlon's Butchers, O'Donoghues Bakery, Pallas Foods, Anne Starling, Dotser Web & Marketing, Tullamore Rugby Club, Sound Centre.
