OPERATION TRANSFORMATION

Oulart-The Ballagh GAA Club, through its Healthy Club Officer, Breda Flood has signed up, once again for the RTÉ Operation Transformation ‘Ireland Lights Up’ that was so successful in 2019. Beginning on Monday, January 13, and continuing till February 24, the lights at the Upper Pitch will be on Monday nights from 7 p.m. till 8.30 p.m. to enable walkers/runners to participate. People are asked to sign-in so that the numbers taking part can be recorded.

BINGO IN OULART

The GAA Bingo is held in Oulart Community Centre every Sunday night, beginning at 8 p.m. Books are €10 with valuable cash prizes. The jackpot now stands at more than €400. We would ask as many people as possible to support the bingo because not only does it act as a fundraiser, it is also a great way of making and meeting friends and parishioners.

GAA AND CAMOGIE REGISTRATION.

There was a Club Registration night on February 4 and another registration night will be held in March. Adult members of Oulart-The Ballagh GAA Club are reminded that if they wish to have a vote at the next annual general meeting they must have paid full membership before the end of March.
