An Ríocht AC Chairman, Joe Walsh is promising a great night’s entertainment and loads of spot-prizes when the club celebrates the first anniversary of its 50/50 fund-raising draw on this Saturday, July 1st at Browne’s Bar, Lower Main Street, Castleisland.

The action will start at around 9pm and An Ríocht AC’s 50/50 draw will carry a prize of €1,000 and there will be a spot-prize for almost everyone present.

Raving About Bernie

Joe is also raving about the club’s and the night’s star musical attraction, Bernie Heaney. She will set feet dancing with her brand of country and western music for the rest of the night.

That in itself is sure to gather a crowd but you’ll be excused for thinking about all the money you could win there on this special occasion.
