THERE was a good turnout for the re-scheduled Austin Stacks GAA Race Night which was held at the clubhouse in Connolly Park on Friday.

This event was organised to raise funds to alleviate the costs of running the juvenile boys and girls football and finance pitch maintenance and upgrades.

The operation of the event on the night was co-ordinated by  Fundraising Events Group with their Sales and Marketing Director, Jimmy Bouchier operating the night’s ten races.

Vouchers were presented to Angelina Moriarty and Ger Breen for being the Best Dressed Racegoers on the night. The next fundraising event on the calendar is the Golf Classic on Friday 25th March at Tralee Golf Club. Scroll down for photos by Adrienne McLoughlin…
