Pulling tractors, performing and prize nights with the YFC
The vibrant club has enjoyed a busy season so far - and many successes.
Thursday 19th May saw Finvoy hold their annual parents and friends evening in honour of their past year’s events and successes. The evening consisted of prize distribution and presentation of gifts. Then after all the formalities the audience was treated to Finvoy’s own choir, a comedy sketch and a re-performance of their annual arts festival show.

On 28th April Finvoy took to the stage in their production of ‘More Tea Vicar’ in Ballymoney High School.
It resulted in Finvoy receiving second place in the province at the annual drama awards dinner held on May 10th. And the club’s “fantastic and patient producers” Stephanie Fulton and Karena Shaw won the award for Best Producers.
Finally the members completed their charity Tractor Pull on May Day Monday in aid of the Children’s Cancer Unit Charity.
