The article says 6 Roses went into the water, but I can only see 5 in the picture. Does anyone know who the missing Rose is?
The wet Roses were Belfast Rose Rose Frances Rafferty, Cork Rose Laura Mitchell, Kerry Rose Veronica Hunt, Tipperary Rose Lynda Kelly, Dublin Rose Niamh Sherlock and the 2009 Rose of Tralee Charmaine Kenny.
Mr. O'Gara is quoted in the article "If you are entering the knobbly knees or glamorous granny competitions, looking above to the magnificent aerial display and parachute jump or simply perusing the 50 years of fashion exhibition at the County Museum, we wish you every enjoyment at this year's festival".

Hi All, I think the missing Rose could possibly have been Gemma from Down (although my mind was slightly frozen at the time from the cold so i can't be 100% certain). It was brilliant fun!! Domonic (the photographer)didn't expect, or demand, that we venture out that far into the water, but all of the girls were up for the challenge. After wading out past our hips, it seemed like the logical progression!! We later went Panto Racing at the Tralee Dog Track.. there is officially no end to the suprises and entertainment of being a Rose.
