Successful fundraisers

Two fundraising events last weekend turned out to be very successful, with Kilcullen Parish and the various charities helped by Kilcullen Lions being beneficieries.

The Lions annual Duck Race saw more than 500 yellow ducks being 'sold' at five euros a time, and along with some other attractions in the square raised a good sum.

Seven rock bands made the area a lively place. All had some local connections, showing that there's no shortage of talent in the upcoming generation.

On the same day, the annual Landers School of Dancing Feis drew a larger than usual number of entrants and their families.
