SEISIÚIN

In July and August, Comhaltas Ceoltóirí na hÉireann will be organising a ‘Seisiúin’ in the Fr Murphy Centre in Boolavogue every Wednesday night. The fun will start at 9 p.m. and will feature great music, singing and dancing.

THANK YOU.

The Parish Committee would like to say a huge ‘Thank You’ to all who made last weekend’s field day such a great success. Final figures for the fundraiser have still to be calculated but it looks as if in excess of €10,000 was raised, including €2,250 donated to the cemetery collection and over €4,000 raised on the raffle.

CHURCH GATE COLLECTION

A church gate collection in aid of the friends of Gorey District Hospital will be taken up at the weenend Masses in St Cormac’s church this weekend. Your generous support would be very much appreciated.

GAA NEWS

On Tuesday, June 20, the under-12s took on Cloughbawn and after a thriller, with both teams very evenly matched, our lad emerged victorious by a single point. They fought hard to get the win and the 3-8 to 2-10 final score gives some idea of how close the game was.

GAA LOTTO

With Mary Murphy of Killabeg winning the big prize, the jackpot in the Monageer-Boolavogue GAA lotto has been reset at €2,000 for the next draw which takes place in the club complex in Monageer tonight, Tuesday, June 27, at 9.30 p.m. Tickets only cost €2 and can be had from all club members and local businesses or bought in the complex immediately before tonight’s draw.
