"Last year's event was a tremendous success and offered the greyhound racing community the opportunity to gather after a period of restrictions", explained John Tuohey, Interim Chief Executive, GRI.  “Ag Rásaíocht Le Chéile is very much about providing people with a night out of remembrance and it was decided to host the night again this year. We look forward to welcoming everyone from families to groups of friends to individuals who wish to enjoy a night of racing while meeting up with old acquaintances,” added Mr Tuohey
