Presentation to Seniors fund

A cheque for 2,400 euros was presented to the Kilcullen Senior Citizens Fund at the weekend, following the final of the KTK Land Fill Charity Pool Tournament in McTernans.



The competition was organised by Benny McHale with the help of other stalwarts of the McTernan's pool scene, and some 27 teams entered from all over the county.

The contest has been running since the middle of March. The Martin Thorpe team from the Milltown Inn won the final, beating Newbridge CYMS by 7 games to 5.



KTK Landfill provided 2,000 euros for prizes from a community fund which the company provides annually to Kilcullen. The donation to the Senior Citizens Fund came from the entry fees.
