St Brigids GAA Lotto

At the moment we are having an unprecedented run on the lotto jackpot. The lotto jackpot is now at an all time high never having reached this amount before. With the jackpot so high it is a great opportunity to raise vital funds for our club. It is also very easy to sell the lotto when the jackpot is so high. With this in mind we are asking people if they can take some lotto books and try and sell tickets to family, friends and work colleagues. If you think you could sell tickets please contact Barry on 086-8504676.
St Brigid’s lotto can be played in all local shops and pubs, as well as on-line at stbrigids.gaa.ie. Tickets are only €2 each and this week’s jackpot is €18,800.
