Tommy Costello, a roofing contractor from Cahermoneen, Tralee is the latest winner in Tralee Credit Union’s Members’ Car Draw.

Tommy drives away with a brand new 172 Ford Focus from Kerry Motor Works.

I Thought It Was a Hoax

“I was absolutely shocked when I received the call, I had to get my wife Veronica to phone back the number as I thought it was a hoax,” said Tommy in reaction to his win.

“We have actually been driving a 2003 car for the last few years and just last week we changed it to a newer model with Kerry Motor Works.

Absolutely Delighted

“Then to get a call telling me we had won a brand new Ford with the Credit Union through Kerry Motor Works, I thought someone was having me on.

“We are absolutely delighted it’s a gorgeous car,” said Tommy.

Tralee Credit Union’s Car Draw has been in operation since 2008 and Tommy became the 37th car draw winner.

Cash Prizes at Christmas

Tralee Credit Union runs its car draw four times a year at a cost of €6 per draw. Any surplus money left over at the end of the year is raffled out to their car draw members in the form of cash prizes at Christmas time.

The next car draw takes place in October for further information visit the website at: www.traleecu.ie or call in to the offices in Tralee, Castleisland and Killorglin.
