Virtual 5k fundraiser this weekend

- JUVENILE COMMITTEE FUNDRAISER

Our juvenile committee in conjunctio­n with Ballyporee­n Ladies GAA are organising a Virtual 5k fundraiser this weekend. There has been a huge effort put in by everyone to pull this together so we encourage everyone to get out and participat­e.

You can choose to walk, run or cycle the 5Kms on either the Friday 19th, Saturday 20th or Sunday 21st of March or if you feel energetic do the lot over the weekend. There are no excuses.

As a promoter of positive health for our young kids and adolescent­s in our community both the Juvenile Committee and the Ballyporee­n Ladies Football Club are unrivalled in the work they do to support the physical and mental wellbeing of our young boys and girls through our great sports. Their work deserves our support.

Look out for more informatio­n on social media and local outlets in the coming days as the countdown continues. We have been overwhelme­d with the support from the Community so far. A Go Fund Me page https:// gf.me/u/zj7kru has been created to facilitate people to support and we hope everyone will come out and participat­e over the weekend.

As always please adhere to Covid19 guidelines while participat­ing and we look forward to seeing the pictures of you and your families participat­ing. Please contact Geraldine King or Ann Fitzgerald for any further informatio­n. A big thank you to both and the organising committee for all their efforts.
