Abbeyknockmoy to the Queen

THE Abbeyknockmoy Set Dancers were delighted and honoured to perform for Queen Elizabeth II during her state visit last week. Teacher Marie Moran said it was a privilege for the group who performed for the Queen and Prince Philip in Croke Park last Wednesday. The young dancers performed the Roscommon Lancers Set and it seems Prince Philip was particularly taken by the dancing. 'It was a fantastic opportunity for us and we were delighted to be asked,' said Marie Moran.
