The contestants in this year's Kildare Rose had a busy day out last Saturday.

Those who want to take part can email organiser Elena Gibson at kildare.roseoftralee@gmail.com.
The closing date is this Saturday, April 1.
The Roses will also host a charity afternoon tea in aid of the Jack & Jill Children's Foundation, their nominated good cause, in the Westgrove, this Saturday from 1pm. Tickets cost €20, which includes a glass of prosecco.
