Fundraising Draw
We are half way through our Fundraising Draw. We are asking for all our members and associates to do their bit to raise as many funds for our club and our future. Do you or your children use our fantastic facilities? Do you use our walking / running track? We would appreciate if you were able to give up some time to go out with our sellers to help fundraise please contact any of our committee members- even if it’s a few hours a week. Reminder for all team leaders – returns are to be made every Tuesday night in the committee room at 9pm sharp.

Our 5 lucky dip winners winning £20 each: – Pauline Corr (Dungannon), John Armstrong, Sean Murphy, Gerry McVeigh (Dernaseer), John Kelly (Beechline). 3 out of our 5 lucky dip winners tonight bought their ticket in Galbally Post Office. Next week’s jackpot returns to £1,400. Next draw takes place on Tuesday 11th October at 9pm. If you need a lotto seller to call to your home, contact any committee member or alternatively tickets can be purchased in Tally’s Mace or Donnelly’s Post Office. Lotto is an essential source of income for the club & your continued support is greatly appreciated.
Club Shop
Since our committee are out selling tickets for our Club Fundraiser we will be changing the opening times of the club shop until the end of the draw. The club shop will now be open on Sunday mornings from 11am – 12noon sharp. We know it’s only the start of October but we have decided to open our Christmas club to allow people to reserve & pay off on items over the next few months. This also ensures that you will get the size that you need. Once the stock is gone we will be unable to get extra sizes in before Christmas.
Congratulations
Congratulations and well done to our current committee man and club referee Sean Hurson who had a tough job on his hands on Saturday as linesman at the Dublin All-Ireland football final replay. Next up for Sean is when he takes centre stage refereeing the County Final in Omagh on Sunday with Killyclogher v Coalisland. Following on from our Tyrone GAA Summer camp, James Donnelly & Emma McBride will be representing Piarsaigh an Ghallbhaile participating in the half-time games in the Tyrone County Finals on Sunday in Healy Park, Omagh. A great day to represent our club – enjoy.
