Glensiders man honoured

For years, they have been playing at country dances with their lilting music and, in doing so, amassed quite a large following.

Recently, the Mayor of Coleraine, Councillor Sandy Gilkinson, hosted a reception to honour the work of Jim McCullough, a former member of the Glensiders.

Mr and Mrs McCullough, accompanied by their daughter Justine, enjoyed afternoon tea to acknowledge Jim’s association with Council for over 30 years.

Jim, who has been actively involved with music all of his life, has regularly performed at Council tea dances with the Glensiders.

Mr McCullough accepted a photograph, taken with the Mayor at his last engagement with Council at the Christmas tea dance in the Best Western Magherabuoy Hotel, Portrush.
