Club Lotto
26/01/2023 numbers drawn: 5, 12, 23, 32. There was no jackpot winner, we had four match 3, with €25 each going to Margaret Geraghty, Mary McInerney, Paul Moynihan & Roger Fox. Marie Moloney won the promoters prize of €25.
Well done to all. The jackpot is now €6625, play online here: https://eireoginis.ie/draws, many thanks for your continued support and best of luck!
Can you help??
We are seeking volunteers to help out with the lotto draw at the clubhouse every Thursday. Currently this responsibility is falling on 1 individual, so we hope to build a panel of helpers to share the load. The hope is to have each volunteer do 1 night a month at most, but for this to happen we need people to step up.
As the lotto is mostly processed online now, the whole process takes approx. 30 minutes. The draw is on Thursdays at the clubhouse, around 9/9.30pm.
Please contact Fergal as soon as possible if you can help out: treasurer.eireogennis.clare@gaa.ie
