Thank you. Last Friday we had our party & fundraiser, and it was the best night we had in a long time.
We asked for your support and we were overwhelmed by your response. Since December we had accumulated a deficit of €1000 and we were at a breaking point, but thanks to all of you we raised an incredible €1150, finally bringing our books out of the red and giving us the confidence to keep going.
We want to thank Michael and all the staff at Carey’s Pub for hosting us; Cat McGrath, Ross Boland, and Louis Quirke for making it all happen; everybody who played music, all the volunteers who sold tickets, and all the businesses and individuals who donated amazing prizes for the raffle:
37 Queen St. — Allens of Clonmel — Baker's — Believe in Yourself — Clonmel Photo Centre — Connolly Man — CrowBlackChicken & Stephen McGrath — Don McIntyre — Driver's at the 19th — Eldon's Bar — Fitzgerald Menswear — Ink Smith Tattoo & Piercing — John O'Gorman — Knick-Knack Shop — Lavish Beauty Lounge — Lonergan's Bar — Mary Street Pharmacy — McCormac's Pharmacy — Mulcahy's — Now Trading Depo — Odyssey Hair — Phil Carroll's — Prego Pizza — Sean Hackett Ltd. — Slievenamon Golf Club — Talbot Hotel — Tivoli Cards
