One of our best fund raisers year on year out are our bag packs.  This year again thankfully Supervalu Johnstown have given us a weekend to do a bag pack on Friday the 23rd of January from 10am till 9pm and Saturday the 24th from 9am till 6pm.  All we need now is you time!

We need volunteers to Man or Lady the tills and pack bags.  We need one or two hours of your time to help out. With over 300 members in the club if everyone gives an hour will have the Tills permanently stationed.  If we miss a spot it really is money for nothing we are loosing.  So please leave your details on the form bellow and let us know what you can do.

Christy Kavanagh

Christy Kavanagh wins Last Man Standing

The Johnstown FC Last Man Standing came to a conclusion at the weekend with first team coach Christy Kavanagh emerging victorious.

Going into the weekend both Christy and Eoin Sheridan were left in the competition. Both picked Manchester City and their 2-2 draw with QPR was enough to see Christy win the pot as he still had a life going into the weekend.

Thanks to all who took part, a substantial sum was raised for the club and congratulations to Christy.

Johnstown Bake Off
