Kinawley GAA: The Club Lotto will restart this Sunday 17th May, Jackpot is £9500.  The Lotto can be played online by completing the following steps: Search www.klubfunder.com online, Select ‘Find my Club’, Enter ‘Kinawley’ & Play Lotto. Minimum purchase is £5, and this can be done as a combination of lines and draws.  For example it could be five lines for one draw or one line for five draws. We ask families to assist those in their family circle how to play the Lotto online. Lotto envelopes are still available in Curry's Shop, MCM Supplies and McCorry's. Completed envelopes can be left in to any of these shops where they will be collected for the Lotto draw.  If anyone wishes their envelopes to be collected from their house, please contact any committee member who will be happy to do this.
