"Step Back in Time" Video Projects
A group of dedicated
people in Inishowen County Donegal saw the need for a unit to help educate young
adults with special needs. So they got together and decided to raise funds in a
really exciting and novel way. They made videos with the theme of "Step
Back In Time"
They appeared in them themselves and have provided for us a beautiful insight
into how things were done in our forefathers time.
Please give this good cause your support and visit the video websites for further information. I've seen both video's and loved every second, they're unique, inexpensive, and can be sent abroad. They will be of immense interest to future historians.
A brief note to introduce ourselves, we are a group
of people from Inishowen in County Donegal Ireland.
We organized ourselves as a fund raising team to gather funds to enable a
unit to be developed for the further education of young Adults with
special needs from the Inishowen Penninsula. Our latest project has
been the production of a video tape to capture traditions from the local
area. If you would like to "Step Back in
Time" and at the same time contribute to a worthy cause then
please contact us at poteen@eircom.net
and we will organise to send you a Tape. The price of the tape is £15
punts plus postage and packaging depending on where you are in the World. Please
browse through the attached pages by clicking on the subjects listed at the
bottom of the page and let us take you through life as it used to be in Ireland
of yesterday. You will be looking at shots taken from the actual video. The main
theme is the actual making of a run of Poteen but we also for go through various
theme's of life in rural Ireland ending with a traditional Big Night. Hopefully
you enjoy our 2 hour film .
The Season of Corn
Using horses and traditional
farm implements they plow, sow the seeds and grow a field of oats. Then in the autumn
they harvest the crop, thresh & mill it. Traditional scone bread is then
baked on an open fire in a old Irish cottage. The video is filled with the best
of Irish songs. For more info visit:
