Kenmare Golf Club vows to rise from the ashes following fire damage

A fire ripped through their historic clubhouse last Sunday.

Eugene O’Sullivan should have been looking forward to his President’s Day outing at Kenmare Golf Club on Sunday.

Instead, like the rest of the membership at the picturesque golf course on the Ring of Kerry, he is waiting anxiously on engineers’ reports and insurers’ assessments for the true cost of the damage caused by the fire that ripped through their historic clubhouse last Sunday night.
