The Snowball Tea is unique to Termonmaguirke.
People come from all over to enjoy that chat - and the dancing.
Music is usually supplied by a local entertainer, who provides a wide repertoire of popular classics and country-and western favourites. The tea is normally served around midnight, and comprises sandwiches, cake, biscuits and tea. After their refreshment stop everybody goes back to dancing until exhaustion brings the snowball to an end. Snowball Teas raise a substantial sum each year towards the upkeep of the fabric of the church, and other good causes.
