We just want to say thanks to those who contributed to today’s fundraiser, either by buying or bringing buns and cakes and raising €388 for the club. It was great to see the event so well supported.
The club would also like to thank Adrian for all the Work he put into organizing the event and to thanks Niamh, Sandra and Sarah for manning the sale all day long.
Cake sale this Saturday please bring some bakes and try some too!!
Following on from our Bake off last year we are all set to do it. On Saturday the 18th of October we will be having a cake and bake sale in the MDL for all to enjoy with a cup of coffee and a game.
Firstly we need your help so get your Mary Berry on and Bake! Yes you heard me Bake, we need you to bake cakes, buns, cupcakes, cheese cakes what ever you like and then bring them down to the MDL on the 18th.
Of course the real fun part you get to taste the bake so for a nominal fee you can buy your own cake or someone else’s and enjoy it whilst you watch your game and don’t forget if you still feel peckish at half time you can come back for more!
So Saturday the 18th of October Bake, Bring and Buy Cake.

Also a special thank you to Andre from Macaris in Johnstown village where they held a collection over the last few weeks which they donated to us as well as Andre himself helping with the bag pack.
