Walk to honour ‘Shaq’ O’Donoghue
A memorial walk will be held on Saturday, April 5, to remember Caoimhín "Shaq" O'Donoghue, who passed away last year.
The walk will mark what would have been his 50th birthday and raise funds for Comfort for Chemo Kerry.
The walk will start at Killarney Racecourse at 3:00 pm, go through the National Park to Ross Castle, and return to the racecourse. Registration begins at 2:30 pm.
Caoimhín was well-known in Killarney and Kerry through his involvement with St. Paul's Basketball Club, Dr. Crokes GAA Club, and his security work.
His family, including his mother Margaret, sister Sheena, and brothers Shane, Cormac, and Tim, will lead the walk.
There is no registration fee, but donations are encouraged through a GoFundMe page and a collection on the day. Comfort for Chemo Kerry aims to build a chemotherapy unit in Kerry.
After the walk, refreshments and music by Kieran Healy will be provided at Killarney Racecourse.
The O'Donoghue family thanks The Brand Geeks, Kerry Catering Supplies, and Ollie Favier for their support.
