Ballycastle
GAA will be selling County Board Development Draw €100
tickets for the next few weeks. Funds raised from their sale
contribute to costs of our local club and County teams. These
tickets are a vital source of funding for the club. We are
expecting to commence construction of our new club house this
summer and the income from these tickets will go directly
into this project. This redevelopment will be a great asset
to our community for generations to come.
The
cash prizes have increased in value this year and a full list
of the prizes is available on the back of the ticket. Club
members and players will be calling door to door asking for
your support. Purchasers can club together if they wish to
share a ticket. We thank all supporters again for your help
and we know you will not let down our club. For any draw inquiries
or to arrange to buy a ticket contact Joe Gardiner on (086)
845 3067 or Eilis Ormsby on (087) 793 6942 or email secretary.ballycastle.mayo@gaa.ie
