 Now
that the commemoration of '98 in the country is Finished, it would be a pity to lose such
a worthwhile initiative by disbanding the pikemen/ pikewomen. Many
thousands of pike people all over Co. Wexford wound down their year long activities of
proudly marching to the many historical venues in many parts of Ireland.
Their Commitment to Comóradh '98 and efforts to commemorate Wexford peoples' noble
stand in the cause of democracy and freedom this year were commendable. This
community spirit and comradeship shown by them everywhere was remarkable and has proved
beyond doubt that any worthwhile cause seeking universal support will be responded to if
given favourable guidance.
 This year for the second year in succession, Enniscorthy town hosts
Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, the greatest cultural and traditional music festival of our
time. It was secured by the town because if the strong efforts made by the people
from all over Co. Wexford over many years and of the steadfast commitment to
traditional Irish music, song and dance by many people for generations.
