Upcoming Events
The DCU YFG AGM is taking place tonight at 8pm in Room CG04.
Our guest chair for the evening will be Fine Gael Senator Paschal Donoghue, and we'll be having some drinks afterwards in the old Bar (with DCU attempting to clear their current account surplus - i.e. at least one free drink).
YFG Dublin Regional drinks evening in The Turks Head, Temple Bar, on Friday 28th of March, from 8.30pm.
Everyone welcome
Questions and Answers: It's a concept that Fine Gael, as a party, are relatively more comfortable with. It's also a television show on RTE1 on Monday nights. We're gonna be heading along to it on Monday 7th April - with a wine reception afterwards, and transport covered by the nice people at RTE. So, if you're in, let me know as soon as you can. The important thing you need to notice there is the wine reception. ;)
Economics Debate (Dublin Regional event) - "Who shot the Celtic Tiger?". Tuesday 15th of Aprill, the DRC will be having a seminar on Economics. At Buswells Hotel on Kildare Street across from the Dail.
Richard Bruton TD and others will speak at the event.
Event with Frontbench Enterprise spokesman Leo Varadkar TD in DCU. More details to follow.
National Debating Competition
YFG is intending to initiate a fledgling national debating competition in the coming weeks. It should
resemble the system operated by Macra na Feirme and will offer members increased opportunity to engage with each othe. Debating is a vital skill in politics. The organisation is more than happy to
facilitate its membership. The competition is to begin possibly over the Summer months.
