CASTLECONN­OR LOTTO

There was no winner of the €24,500 jackpot, numbers drawn were 23, 32, 36, and 37, No jackpot winner, lucky-dip winners were Mark Boland, Kathleen Carrabine, and Paul Egan, next week’s jackpot is €24,600.

Due to spreading of Covid-19 virus, the club has taken the decision to make the following changes to our weekly lotto. We make this decision to protect our lotto volunteers in these difficult times.

After (March 14) draw we will not be offering cash purchases for our lotto draw till further notice. Anyone wishing to be included in the draw will have to buy their ticket online or be the owner of an annual lotto Ticket. There will be no envelopes left in shops/ pubs etc. The lotto Box in these premises will contain a note instead with a link to our online lotto. There will be a phone number on each box that can be texted and we will reply with a link allowing online lotto. The draw will be carried out online starting on March 21 It will be witnessed by at least two members from the club lotto volunteers. A video will be made of the draw and this will be shared online.

We apologise for the inconvenie­nce this will cause. We urge people to continue to support our lotto. This is what keeps our club running.
