Re-establishment of the New York Dinner

Re-establishment of the New York Dinner – November 22nd 2024

 It is with great excitement that we announce the re-establishment of the New York Dinner on Friday, November 22nd 2024.  Rosie O’Grady’s Restaurant, 148 W 51st Street, New York, NY 10019 is the chosen venue for the event.    

Prior to the global disruption caused by Covid, the New York Dinner was an established event in the calendar of Union events, bringing together CCR Pastmen from Ireland and the USA with the common link of Cistercian College, Roscrea as their Alma Mater.

This year, the Abbot Dom Malachy Thompson OCSO, the College President Mr Colm Maloney, Union President Mr John Mc Manus and the Union Secretary Ms Katherine Donovan will attend the event in New York and we are inviting anyone who is free to travel or indeed who may find themselves in New York around that time, to join us at this event.

Our thanks to Union President John Mc Manus and to Dr Paddy Boland (CCR 1956/’61) who have been instrumental in ensuring the reinstating of this event. We look forward to seeing a large gathering of CCR pastmen in attendance.
