Lotto – There was no winner of the €1100 jackpot this week which was held on Monday night the 7^th  of October 2013. The numbers drawn were 01, 11, 14, 26. The 4 lucky dips of €50 were Gary Carville, Cairde, Phyllis Ryan, Drumillared Siobhan Connor, Meath Hill and Eva Gorman, Castleblayney. Congratulations to all this weeks’ winners and best of luck to everyone for next week. Tickets can be purchased weekly as the Faughs Stall in the Glencarn Shopping Centre every Saturday.

Seniors – The seniors travelled to Scotstown on Saturday last and returned with the points after a strong performance against a weakened Scotstown team. Early goals from Brendan McElroy and Barry Hanratty set the tone and Blayney ran out 4-10 to 0-11 winners. This weekend we are at home to Doohamlet on Saturday afternoon at 4.30PM

Congratulations – As they say…. “if you not in, you can’t win” and last week Sarah Mackin made sure that husband Pat bought his weekly ticket off her at the Club Stand in Supevalu. One can only imagine the surprise that Pat got when he answered the phone to Bob O Donnell late on Monday evening to be informed that his lucky numbers had actually come out of the drum and that he won the Jackpot of €11,000. Well done to Pat and Sarah, it great to see local people who have put so much into the Club over the years get something back.

Operation TransFAUGHSmation – Last Friday saw a great turn out for the Jazzercise , with everyone expecting one Mr. Jason “Jazza” Hughes to take the class…. it was to everyone great surprise that Sandra Carolan from Carrickmacross turned up to give a brilliant class which combined jazz dance,  resistance training,  pilates and kick boxing movements into a fun dance routine. Thanks a million to Sarah and her sister Olive for two great classes Sunday morning again saw another huge turnout at St. Marys Park, with the group splitting up into cyclists, walkers/beginner runners and runners for a good hours’ exercise before the Sunday dinner. Tuesday and Friday this week are Bootcamp sessions in the field,  please note that this is only ONE big class this week starting at 6.30pm. Remember to keep supporting and taking to each other as we continue to make progress towards the Supervalu 5K on December 1^st.  Well done to everyone so far for the enormous effort, keep up the great work.
