Co-ordinator of the South Roscommon Singers Circle's Singers Festival Declan Coyne lent his farm near Dysart for the launch of the festival's programme this year. He held a barbeque and presented an afternoon of old-fashioned corn-cutting for the singers and musicians who gathered from Roscommon and neighbouring counties. The festival took place over the Bank Holiday weekend in Knockcroghery and one of the highlights was the presentation of the Annie McNulty Award. This year the award, an Irish wool tapestry made by Fran Crowe, was presented to English folksinger Bob Davenport.
