Golf Classic raises over €4,000


The annual Golf Classic in aid of Parish funds raised over €4,000.
The event was held at the Curragh Golf Club, and a meal and entertainment at the end of the day attracted a good number of non-playing supporters.

Fr Michael Murphy expressed his thanks to participants for their generosity 'in these stricken times', and organiser Nessa Dunlea also thanked those who had supprted the event both by entering teams and coming along to the 'afters'.

The winning team was entered by Curragh Lawns Nursing Home and comprised Noel Ryan, Alan Ryan, Dave Weyer and Declan Goode.

Second in the placings were Steve Kinneavy, Simon Hume, Mick Spencer and Mick Hyland. Next up was the quartet of Mick Masterson, Mark Masterson, Ronnie Masterson and John Shortt. The fourth place team comprised Ger Peacocke, Frank Kenny, Frank Kenny Jr and Charlie Dowling.

Prizes which included green fees for the K Club, Carton House and Ratsallagh were donated by Rosemarie Sisk, and Joe O'Flynn.

Thanking all the sponsors, Nessa Dunlea said the raffle and sponsorship of tee boxes were also well supported.
