An Garda Síochána Centenary Celebrations

An Garda Síochána Centenary Celebrations

It was a privilege for the Chamber to be part of the commemoration to mark the 100th anniversary of An Garda Síochána in the Midleton District. The ceremony began with a beautiful service in St Colman’s Cathedral and was followed by a march through our historic Cobh town led by an amazing Garda band.

In attendance on the day were Chief Superintendant Con Cadogan, retired Assistant Commissioner Pat Leahy, and current Assistant Commissioner Eileen Foster, as well as family members of the first gardaí to arrive by boat to Cobh in 1922.

There was a fantastic turnout and President Johanna was delighted to meet with everyone especially the honorary Gardaí of Little Blue Heroes.
