French exchange for Athboy teens

A youth twinning exchange took place between France and Athboy during the Halloween break from 23rd October until 2nd November, organised by Athboy Twinning Association and their counterparts in Autonne Villages, France, with which Athboy is twinned. Some 25 Athboy teenagers aged 12-15, with four leaders, travelled to France where they enjoyed visits to Asterix Park and Paris. On 28th October, 23 French youths with three leaders returned to Ireland with the Irish group and undertook visits to Loughcrew Adventure Centre, Dublin, the Causey Halloween Experience in Fordstown and enjoyed a Halloween party. All involved had a brilliant time. Thanks were extended to all the parents and committee who helped in any way to make a memorable exchange for all the teenagers.
