No. Drawn - 33
Jack The Joker
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will continue this Sunday night in Kennedy’s Live at 9:30pm where the Jackpot will be €4,944 as on Sunday night Jim Egan was drawn out of the drum but did not find the Joker, however he does win €50, while Susan Kiely and Christy Dunford won €25.  We appeal to all our supporters to continue purchasing the tickets as the funds raised will go towards our ongoing development works at the club grounds.

The Brawl in the Hall
The countdown in on to the club’s unique boxing fundraiser in connection with Brickey Rangers GAA Club.  The event will take place on Saturday, 15th December in Dungarvan Sports Centre.  Tickets priced at €10 can be purchased from any committee member.  Our boxers are training two nights a week with another session on Saturday mornings so they are sure to be in prime shape for the big night.
