Intermediate County Final

Saturday: Kick off the weekend (see what we did there!) with a trip to Glennon Brothers Pearse Park to support Fr. Manning Gaels in their battle against Sean Connollys. Kick off 1pm. Tickets on sale here

Table Quiz

Saturday: After the mad excitement (and hopefully winning score) get your glad rags (or costume) on with a fancy dress table quiz to raise funds for our newest Community Group – The Gunner McGee Players. They will be performing in December and proceeds will fund this performance. Get your spook on (and your answers ready) for this event in Dillons – raffle, spot prizes and a bar tab for the winning costume!

Pool Tournament

Sunday: In memory of the Colin Heaney, the Heaney Boy Pool Tournament takes places in the The 98 Bar. Young and not so young are invited for the event that starts at 3pm – crepes, cocoa, photo booth, finger food and prizes galore! Sign up here

Social Dancing

Sunday: Dancing for everybody! 5 – 7pm in the ’98 Hall. Music by Michael Cleary & Jacqui Bannon

Lotto Draw

Monday: And to round off the weekend, the parish Lotto draw will take place in Dillons at 9pm. Make sure you buy an envelope/enter on line as €2,220 wouldn’t go amiss after that weekend! www.ballinamuck.ie/lotto
