PART OF THIS PLACE

Thursday evening 22nd June 2017 Paddy Behan Launched his book titled:

"PART OF THIS PLACE"

It was Launched in the clubhouse of Coollattin Golf Club by club 
Captain Kevin Stapleton, who recalled much of Paddy's work on the Golf Course. It was no surprise to see the Clubhouse full to capacity for this event.
Paddy a very popular member of Coollattin Golf Club, and also
very popular Shillelagh man, has a long life time of memories of both
Shillelagh and Coollattin Estate.
Born in 1929, he commenced working for the Fitzwilliam Family on the estate
in 1943. When the Estate was sold in 1977 he transferred over to working for Coollattin Golf club (located on the estate) and became head green keeper a short while later.
Paddy recalls many memoirs of his life time in his book.
He gave a very detailed account of it on the night.
He also attributed a lot of praise for his daughter Frances who spent many days following him around the estate and Shillelagh with a camcorder to record everything and then transfer it into script.
Other speakers on the night was club President Tony Ryan, Hon. Secretary Jack Lynch. Paddy's son Paul and Daughter Frances.
The book is a fantastic read. First edition was sold out instantly on the launch night. Second edition is almost sold out now.

Congratulations Paddy, Well done.
