Be sure to mark your calendars and be sure to register to join us for this year’s Annual General Meeting. The agenda will include updates on RARA activities over the past year, we’ll hear from our elected representatives, and let you know what we have in the works for 2024 - 2025.
A little post-Halloween fun for the little ones, where they can wear their costumes and enjoy those jack-o-lanterns one more time before they get composted. So if you think your pumpkin is gourd-geous and your costume is too boo-tiful to be work just one night, bring them to Hardy’s Corner. Come out for a fun pumpkin parade!

Time to gather together and begin planning our 2024 Rathnelly Day, which will take place on Saturday, June 15th, 2024.
Come out and join the fun as we brainstorm theme, solicit new ideas and call for volunteers. Planning meetings for the 2024 event will be virtual.
Looking forward to seeing all our Rathnelly Day volunteers - old and new!
Join us on Monday, December 18 at 6 PM at Hardy’s Corner for the return of the winter solstice party.

We hope to see you all there. Dress warmly and let’s kick off the holidays together!
