A cheque for €41,500 was handed over to Kevin Delaney from the society on Saturday night last in the Stray Inn. In accepting the cheque, Kevin said that the Tractor Rally was one of the society's biggest fundraisers throughout the year.

The cheque was presented by Ann Sully who just a week previously was among those nominated for the Kildare Person of the Year Award because of her work in helping to organise the rally.
