Devenish GAA will host the 2023 Garrison 10K and 5K at 12 noon on Saturday, 2 September. Proceeds raised from this year’s event will go towards a community gym for the village.  

The chip-timed run and walk is organised by the Garrison club in association with Melvin Recreational & Resource Complex Limited.

The event was launched by the shores of Lough Melvin which forms part of the scenic 5K route, with help from the club’s newly formed Garrison Run4Fun group along with members of the Devenish GAA development committee.
