Joe Walsh is the founding member of An Ríocht in Castleisland, a trustee of the organisation and in charge of fundraising at the track in Castleisland. He spoke to Jerry about the success of Ireland in the European Athletics Championships. But what about facilities for training children, teens, and young adults? An Ríocht is privately owned and has gotten some government funding but Joe says this isn’t enough to pay for the ongoing costs of running the amenity.
