Lourdes Pilgrimage Table Quiz Friday 1st March 2024 at 8pm

The Table Quiz will take place on Friday 1st March 2024 at 8pm in The Wallis Arms.  

This Quiz has become an annual fundraiser to help 5th Year Students from Millstreet Community School who are going on pilgrimage to Lourdes with the Irish Pilgrimage Trust, to pay for their travel and accommodation. Aoife Casey & Holly Saunders (pictured below) are the 5th years going this year and they will be Student Helpers with Goup 126.

Thanks to the wonderful support of the community for the bake sales in the Parish Centre before Christmas, the girls’ travel and accommodation costs have been covered (€750/per person).  However Group 126, along with all other groups taking part in the pilgrimage, are expected to raise €14,000 each year to cover the travel/accommodation costs of all the young people with special needs (known as ‘guests’) who are travellingwith their particular group.  All funds raised from the table quiz will go to the fundraising efforts of Group 126.
Tables: €40/team of four.  There will be a raffle.  Everyone is welcome to take part in what has become a great community event in support of the students.

We thank MCS Chaplain, John Magee for this important Notice.  (S.R.)
