Dunnamaggin Hurling Club, Juvenile Hurling Club, Kells Handball club & Hall, Kilmoganny


Community Centre & Local Community, Dunnamaggin Community Centre & Community.


The funds raised have enabled the various beneficiaries to provide facilities to the community


whether it is paying insurances/light & heat for Handball Club or in the Community Centres, or


maintaining playing pitches. The Lotto could not have been a success without the loyalty of our


Promoters collecting weekly or you contributing. Over the 20 years the ticket price increased from


€1.27(£1.00) to € 1.50 in 2002, this was with euro changeover. We now propose to change


selection to 3 numbers from 1 - 36, compared with the present 3 from 1 – 32. If you wish to change


your numbers, then contact your promoter. This will take effect from Monday 1 st August 2016.


Thanks for your support over the years & looking forward to your continued support.
