Unforgettable Memories
Every summer, Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps are 'at the heart of the community, bringing people together and celebrating diversity'.

Galway GAA star David Burke recalls one of his favourite memories of Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps.
“For me, I always looked forward to meeting up with my friends to play hurling on sunny summer days down at St. Thomas’s GAA pitch. A great chance to make new friends, develop my hurling skills and to participate in the mixed hurling leagues,” he said.
While Kerry footballer Louise Ni Mhuircheartaigh adds how some of her best friends are those whom she met at Kellogg’s GAA Cúl Camps in her younger days “The Kellogg’s GAA Cul Camps were always the perfect opportunity to develop and practice my skills for hours every day with my friends, to make new friends and we always had a lot of fun along the way too!”
