Two jiving duos from Donegal danced to victory last weekend at one of Ireland’s largest country music festivals. 

Local dancers took home second and third place prizes from the major contest, which was held in the Diamond in Monaghan Town on Sunday 15th July.

Young talents Claire Campbell (Creeslough) and Lorcan Doherty (Kilmacrennan) won Silverware. Falcarragh partners Ashlene Doohan and Neil Bonner came third.

Competitive dancers from all over Ireland performed to the songs of Jim Devine.  Overall, it was a brilliant and lively weekend enjoyed by all.
