KILCUMMIN COMMUNITY NOTES
PINK NIGHT RESCHEDULED
The Ladies’ Committee of Kilcummin GAA Club would like to announce the rescheduling of its annual Pink Night, taking place in The Klub Bar, it will now take place on Saturday, January 10th. Now in its twelfth year—and supporting Comfort for Chemo for the fifth year running—this much-loved event promises a fantastic evening of fun and fundraising for all. Guests will be greeted with a prosecco reception and chocolate-dipped strawberries to set the tone for a relaxed post-Christmas celebration. While everyone is encouraged to wear pink, dressing up is completely optional—the true spirit of the night is community, enjoyment, and support for a great cause. Prizes will be awarded for Best Dressed Female and Best Dressed Male. The festivities begin at 8pm, with entertainment from Derry and Rosie Healy from 8 to 10:00pm, followed by Barry McGrath playing late into the night.
