Looking Back:Old News Rush News from October 1985

The Rush Community News from this month 35 years ago (1985) led with a report that the old CYMS building in the town was to be the location for the new library. Inside, there was a report on the recent finding of the Titanic, and Rush thespians were excited that RTE were about to film Mary Monk ’ s play, “ You Win Some, You Lose Some. ” The Dramatic Society were about to be made homeless due to the closure of the Balrothery Inn Theatre, which was the venue for their productions at the time. The Community Centre Committee was engaged in a campaign to buy or build a Community Centre, and they took two pages to thank just about everybody in Rush by name, for their help thus far.
