Cork Lions fundraiser in aid of Christmas Food Appeal

Cork Lions Club are delighted to announce that they will be running a Drive In Bingo in the car park of Curraheen Greyhound Stadium on Sunday next, September 26th.

The proceeds from the event will go towards the Cork Lions Club Christmas Food Appeal. Every year Cork Lions Club distributes food hampers to deserving families in Cork City – last year over 500 hampers were distributed. Because of Covid, Cork Lions Club has been unable to run any events to raise funds so everyone’s support for this event is very much appreciated.

The last event proved very popular and a great day out was enjoyed by all participants.

Jason O’Sullivan is the bingo caller and numbers will be broadcast via a local FM transmitter so that people can hear the numbers by tuning their car radio to the bingo channel on the day.

VITAL FUNDRAISER

President of Cork Lions Club Garry Ryan said “We’re delighted to run the Drive In Bingo again – we had hoped to run many more but Covid restrictions prevented us from doing so. The last 18 months have been an enormous struggle for fundraising and this event is our first opportunity to raise funds to support this year’s Christmas Food Appeal, so everyone’s support is appreciated.”

Social distancing will be observed in accordance with Covid guidelines. Gates open at 2pm, starting 3pm.
