Taking on the southern teams was always a significant obstacle for Ulster camogie teams, but St Mary s Magherafelt s 1996 junior team were different. Twenty-five years after being the first Ulster side to win an All-Ireland junior title, Martina Devlin (née McGuckin) looks back on the joy of making history. Michael McMullan writes.
Fantastic. It wasn t just Martina Devlin s choice of word, but it was more how she said it. With an enthusiastic tone that jumped across a conversation of a moment she will never forget.

SPOKANE, Wash. After seeing the work Women and Children’s Free Restaurant is doing during the pandemic on 4 News Now, a community member donated $12,000 to the nonprofit.
4 News Now has been committed to sharing the stories of women facing difficult decisions during the pandemic, being disproportionately affected.
It’s affected how women put food on the table.
The Women and Children’s Free Restaurant has been stepping up to help the community.
In 2020 alone, the restaurant served more than a million free meals to women and their families.
After that story, someone in the Spokane community came forward, anonymously, and wanted to help the nonprofit and it’s mission: Help keep feeding women and children in need.

SPOKANE, Wash. Two Spokane businesses have matched a local actress’ generous donation in an effort to support local restaurants and feed those in need this holiday season.
Earlier this month, Sydney Sweeney announced she would donate $12,000, which would be given to 12 Spokane area restaurants with the purpose of them providing hot meals to 12 different local shelters.
Inspired by her generosity, LifeWise Health Plan of Washington and Washington Trust Bank each matched her donation. Spokane County has also allocated $12,000 for a total of $36,000 in new contributions.
The new funds will now “Extend the Love” beyond the holidays and through the month of February.
