Ballyshannon Action Golf Classic fundraiser

Ballyshannon Action is going full steam ahead with fundraising to cover the legal costs for their upcoming judicial review of the An Bord Pleanala's decision to overturn Kildare County Council's denial of planning permission for Kilsaran's quarry development at Racefield, writes Brian Byrne. The group got their leave for the High Court review earlier this month, though as yet no date has been set.
A Golf Classic on Friday, 6 June, is the next fundraising event in this important battle for the people of Ballyshannon and the surrounding areas, which are already choked with HGV traffic from Kilsaran's three other facilities in the wider Kilcullen area. 
Tee Times for the event at Rathsallagh Golf & Country Club can be booked here. Prizes include four balls for the K Club, Cill Dara and Rathsallagh Golf Clubs and a few more great surprises. A range of sponsorship opportunities are available at various price points and the community would be very grateful for your support. Businesses can sponsor a tee here. You can also buy raffle tickets at this link
And finally, if you'd simply like to contribute, their GoFundMe page is available here. Or you can deposit directly into Ballyshannon Action’s Kilcullen Credit Union Account here: IBAN: IE67KIRI99217910372756. 
The Ballyshannon Action Group was formed in 2019 to protect their rural area from unsuitable development and improve and conserve their biodiversity and local environment. For more on the various initiatives they have supported over these last six almost years, please check out their website here.
