MARCUS Horan may be well know for his stylish playing, but now he’ll also be know for his stylish dress- oor
Marcus is one of the celebrities who will be strutting his stuff on the catwalk on March 23 to raise funds for Clonlara National School.
Clonlara Parents Association are organising a fashion show in the Lakeside Hotel, Killaloe and it promises to be a fun event using chil- dren from the school, Scoil Seanain Naofa, parents, local clubs and guest celebrities.
Joining Marcus on the catwalk will be Leanne Moore and Miss Curvette, Jill Dilmac.
“Everyone is rowing in – parents, teachers, pupils from each class from the tiny infants up,’ said Maeve McGill, chairwoman of the Associa- tion.
Dads are not being shy and they will be taking part too.
They will model a range of mens’ formal and casual clothing.
“Outside of the school, we asked well-known people who have a connection with the school,’ said Maeve.
Marcus Horan’s mother, Margaret, who used to teach in the school, will be modelling and Leanne’s brother is also a pupil there.
So far, there are 11 shops on-board to style the snappy dressers includ- ing Catwalk, Spirit, Lorabees, Fuschia Queen, Aimee’s, Rumples- tilskin, Kelckids, Heaton’s, Shaws, No Name, Whelan’s Pro-Golf and Mike O’Connells.
‘“We’ve had great support between the shops providing clothes and lo- cal businesses providing prizes for the raffle. People have got behind the show and been very supportive.”
Proceeds from the night will go to school funds.
Tickets are available from _ the school and from local committee members.
