Fashion Show: Last Friday night, Lucan Sarsfields members ditched their traditional green and black jerseys and showed haute couture to a packed function room in the 12th Lock. Fashion Show 2010 hit the catwalk and club members, young and not so young, threw off inhibitions and paraded clothing from local and national stores. The clothing shown was casual and formal, young and sporting. And all this was to pulsating music provided by our very own Craig. Credit must be paid to the hard-working ‘Lucan Sarsfields Fashion Show’ committee who were planning and organising this event for over six months.
