Jack The Joker
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Saturday night in Alice O’Connor’s Bar where the jackpot is €3600 as on Sunday night Patricia  Power was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 15 which when turned was not the joker but she did win €50. Jim Egan and Christy Dunford won €25 each. As well as our group of ticket sellers tickets can be purchased from Village Flowers, Spar, Mousies Takeaway, Minnies Bar, Abbeyside Post Office and Crotty’s Bar.

This Sunday we play Ballygunner in Walsh Park at 3:30 where a big improvement will be required to help us maintain an interest in the Championship.

Club Bingo

Sympathy
On behalf of all in the club we would like to send our sympathies to the family and friends of the late Maurice McHugh who passed away last week.  An All Ireland Minor hurling winner with Waterford in 1948 Maurice was a member of our Junior hurling winning team in 1950 and was on the first Abbeyside team to play Senior Hurling in 1951. Maurice remained a great supporter of the club throughout his life and we once again send our sympathies to Maurice's family and friends.
