[image: image.png] Congrats to our very popular member Barry Donnellan who is a very good supporter of our club on winning our first 50/50 draw of £510euro. As you can see this is a huge difference in the weekly winner of £30 euro in the lotto draw. Pictured is Barry with club captains Anne Cox and Paul Reid and vice captain Hugh Gralton.
The parent committee of the golf club has agreed to cease our current club lotto and to move to a new 50/50 draw. A dedicated 50/50 committee has been established to set this up and to oversee the same. This will be an exciting opportunity to significantly increase the prize money to the winners and eliminate the club costs paid to our current lotto third-party providers. The key principles of the draw are as follows. Each draw will take place fortnightly. Ideally, people would pay fortnightly through a bank standing order. However, there will also be envelopes in certain locations for one-off entries. A minimum entry of €5.00 per person each fortnight. However, there is no limit on the number of entries that you may wish to make for each draw. We encourage all members to sign up for the new 50/50 draw. The more that is in…the more you can win! The first 50/50 draw took place last Friday, 10th May. Those set up at that stage by standing order will have enter the first draw automatically. You can, of course, join at any stage after that, but we would encourage you to get in from the start. To sign up by standing order, of €5.00 per fortnight, the following are the Golf Club bank details; Account Name: Carrick on Shannon Golf Club IBAN: IE81 AIBK 9370 6104 0346 24 BIC: AIBKIE2D So please sign up and ask a family member or a friend. And remember, “It could be you”!
