We will turn on the Club / Rags Christmas Tree to kick it all off & have added to last year's lighting of the community walkway which accompanied by Christmas tunes blasting will enhance the Christmas atmosphere as you walk or run. We will have Christmas Carol Singers join us in the clubhouse afterwards & we will serve hot chocolate, (with a drop of Baileys for adult participants), mulled wine & other Christmas goodies to round off a great evening. Fancy dress prizes will be awarded & Santa (if he can be with us) might have a small gift for the smallies Again, this event is a fundraiser supporting the addition of 3 Hurling & Football playing pitches & other infrastructure at our Kilcullen clubhouse, all part of our “Field of Dreams” development. if you have come in previous years - you will notice the continued progress.
