Jack The Joker
 |
| No. Drawn - 38 |
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night
in Alice O’Connor’s where the jackpot is €2,200 as on Sunday night last Joe
Kelly was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 38, which when turned was
not the Joker though he did win €50. Jimmy Lennihan and Lalu O’Connor won €25
each. As well as our group of ticket sellers tickets can be purchased from
Convenience Store Ballinroad, Village Flowers, Spar, Mousies Takeaway, Minnies
Bar and Crottys Corner Bar.
National Draw
Once again this year the GAA are holding a National Draw with tickets
costing €10 each. There are some fantastic prizes on offer. Tickets are now
available from committee members and team managers.
Medal Presentation
On Saturday night last there was a fantastic turnout to our medal
presentation in Scoil Mhuire, Abbeyside. On the night we presented medals to
our victorious Minor, Under 21 and Junior teams and we thank Patrick Hurney and
Conor Prunty for presenting the medals on the night. After the medal
presentation Club Chairman Bernard Shields made a presentation to both Patrick
and Conor to mark their selection as Footballer of the Year and Underage
Footballer of the Year respectively for 2015. We would like to thank Scoil
Mhuire for the use of their facilities, Pat O’Brien for the fabulous food he
provided and the ladies who helped with serving the food to all those present.
Membership
We would like to remind intending members and especially players that
membership fees are now due and can be paid to Kevin Tobin or any team manager.
We would ask players to make a special effort to pay their membership before
returning to training to ensure they are covered by insurance.
Booking of Pitches
As teams start back training over the next few weeks we remind all team
managers that they must book the pitches/astro turf with Michael O’Donovan
prior to training and also managers are asked to remember that the main pitch
remains closed until further notice.
Club Bingo
Our club bingo will continue this Sunday night in the The Park Hotel
with a jackpot of €800.
Sympathy
On behalf of all in the club we would like to extend our sympathies to
the family and friends of the late Cyril Healy, Ballycoe who passed away
recently.
