Donation scheme on track

We are delighted with the progress being made with our donation scheme so far and just blown away by the support from the local community. We have over halfway to our target of €420,000 from all the pledged donations. This does mean that we still need to raise more funds over the coming weeks. Every donation, big or small is appreciated so if you are able to help it will be put to use straight away.

We hope to start the development of the new pitch this summer so we can have it up and running for the 2023 playing season. There is a growing population in Castlelyons and there is a huge interest in Gaelic games in our parish. Your donations will help develop top of the range facilities that will benefit every player of all ages for years to come. If you still have not contributed and you wish to then contact club treasurer Mick Spillane please on 086-8196232.
