Dear Members,
 
I attach a brief summary of the proposed Lansdowne FC club tour to the East Coast of America which takes place from May 31st to June 9th/10th 2019.
 
The tour has been talked about for a long time and planning started as far back as November 2017 and now the players are busy running many fundraising events so please support.
 
We have a touring party of 50 persons which includes 42 club players and takes in 4 matches. In addition, we have a number of members who are making their own arrangements taking in the Boston leg of the tour and/or the New York leg of the tour.
 
If that appeals to you, please see the attached Itinerary and contact John F Burke directly and he will tailor your tour requirements accordingly.
 
However, you need to act quickly as the hotel prices are only held at the ‘tour rate’ until Jan 31st and you need to book your own flights directly with Aer lingus.
 
Kind regards
 
Kieran J Mulligan
 
President Lansdowne FC
