Thank You

Both the Senior and Juvenile Committees would like to extend sincere thanks to all of those who helped in both the organisation and running of the recent Feile bake sale held at the club. It was a great success and a credit to all those involved. It wouldn’t have been possible without all of the baked goods donated on the day and we would also like to extent our thanks for those. We also had two very successful bagpacking days at the Horan Centre Dunnes Stores. Thanks to Dunnes for having us and thanks to all of the girls and boys who manned the slots and also to the adults who supervised. Well done to all.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to Groundsman, Edmond Quirke and Senior Manager, Morgan Nix, who both have birthdays this week.

Congratulations:

Congratulations to the Kerry hurlers on their outstanding win over Laois on Saturday last to retain Division 1B status. Congratulations to St Brendan’s college Killarney on their brilliant Hogan Cup win on Saturday last. The Kerry seniors have booker their place in the semifinal of the National league and we wish them the very best of luck on Sunday next.

To play the Kerins O’Rahillys Lotto, four numbers are selected from 1 to 28. If anybody matches the four numbers selected on the night he/she wins the Jackpot. Match three numbers to win €25. Tickets cost €2 each. The Kerins O’Rahillys Lotto can also be played online at www.korgaa.com.

Please note that it is the responsibility of each individual playing our club lotto via direct debit to ensure that direct debit is paid monthly to the club. In the event that we do not receive two consecutive monthly direct debits an individual’s lotto numbers will no longer be valid for entry to our weekly lotto draw. If an individual cancels their direct debit their lotto entry is deemed cancelled.
