Carlow Lions Club held their Young Ambassador of the 21st Century competition in the Seven Oaks Hotel on Thursday, November 5th. There were seven candidates in the final and these candidates were each interviewed on the night by a panel of judges. They were all excellent candidates and the judges had a difficult task selecting an overall winner. The eventual winner was Ms.Aideen Fleming from Tullow Community School. Aideen will now progress to the next stage of the competition, representing Carlow Lions Club, in December. The photo shows Aideen being presented with a plaque and certificate by Carlow Lions Club President James Nolan ably aided by Lions JoeCostigan, Bob Jeffers and Pat Kelly.
