This years Race Nite which will be held in the Wishing Well on Saturday ( yes Saturday ) the 25th February 2012.  Last year we had a tremendous response and we raised just under € 5000 and we hope that we can replicate that this year. The format is the same as last year in that Jockeys and Horses will cost € 10 each. We expect all members to sell at least € 60 (sixty euros) worth of horses or jockeys.  We are also offering everyone the opportunity to either sponsor a race, or place an advert in the race card.  This is another superb opportunity to promote your business within the club at a very reasonable cost. The costs are as follow : Sponsor a Race €75.00, Full Page Advert €50.00, Half Page Advert €30.00, Quarter Page €20.00.  This is an essential element of the club finances and we rely on this income to meet all our obligations.
