Great Daffodil Day

Daffodil Day 2006 was a huge success. This was our 20th year collecting in Kilcullen and we raised in excess of €4,000.

This was the first year we had rain on Daffodil Day. In spite of that our loyal collectors were out bright and early with smiles to coax the euros from the locals who support the Irish Cancer Society every year.

Special thanks to the group of collectors who worked the new location at the north end of the town at the Gala Supermarket - Frank Kenny, Anne Brennan, Nancy Fitzpatrick and Dolores Duffy. Their collection totalled €1,000.

Another group collected in the estates the week before - Sarah and Emma, Teresa, Laura, and Anne. The faithful ladies who every year give an hour and sometimes two of their precious time to come and collect at the Supermarket, Nolan's and the Filling Station are too numerous to name but their help is greatly appreciated and without them our success would not be possible.

Thank you to the subscribers who give so generously to our worthy cause.
