St Lomans GAA Club Notes 13/11/2023:
Table Quiz Fundraiser:
The Chambers Bar was packed to the rafters last Friday night as the underage section of the club held a table quiz to raise valuable funds for equipment and lighting for our various teams ahead of next season and what a resounding success it was. Hosts Kevin Dunleavy and Niall Dunne scrambled for extra tables and seating to cater for the huge number of people who poured through the doors to support the event.
The final tally raised was in excess of €4,000 which is an extraordinary amount and will greatly benefit all the young boys and girls in the club.
We'd like to extend a special word of thanks to the organising committee comprising of Garry Penrose, Brian Murphy, David Savage, Rodney Farry, Clifford Flynn and Damian Concannon; to the brilliantly-entertaining quizmaster Willie Geraghty and his sidekick MC on the night Brian Murphy who captivated the crowd; and to the markers Olive Hickey and Niamh Murphy whose diligence meant the quiz moved along seamlessly.
It was a fantastic team effort with all the underage coaches promoting it and the club spirit on display was heartwarming.
Can we also acknowledge the huge number of local people and businesses who kindly sponsored prizes for the raffle. The response was genuinely overwhelming and further highlighted the goodwill and generosity present.
While success on the pitch is important, social gatherings and events like last night are what makes a club. Here’s to the next one!
