Super Valu Kits for Clubs:
Kavanagh’s Super Valu Ballybofey have once again launched their Kits for Clubs. As proud sponsors of the GAA Football All- Ireland Championship they have donated over 400 juvenile GAA clubs with kits worth over €430k collectively and our own Local Super Valu has always been a great supporter of the club and once again we can benefit from their generosity. Every time you spend over €40 on a shopping you will get a special receipt at the till. Just put that receipt in the Seán Mac MacCumhaills box. It’s that simple!
Bingo:
The Bingo takes place in the Villa Rose Hotel on Sunday night with an 8.30pm start. The Snowball jackpot is €9,000 for 45 numbers or less. All are very welcome.

There was no winner of this week’s Lotto. The numbers drawn were 8, 20, 21 and 25. There were three match three winners: Francie Lynch, Corgary, Geraldine Martin, Clochan, Anita Foy c/o Villa Rose who all receive €50 each. This week’s jackpot is still a massive €10,000. John Lillis’ team is selling this week.
