Congratulations to Brendan Shevlin, winner of the Perpetual Trophy, €100 cash and two bottles of Champagne – Well done on winning the Michael Benson Memorial Cup in the Drop Inn, Killann on Thursday, October 13th last.
The Benson Family would like to sincerely thank everyone who helped raise funds, selling tickets, buying tickets, donating spot prizes and cash and to all who turned up on the night to Play 25.
A Big Thank You to The Ruggles Family and The Drop Inn for making available the venue and providing the refreshments.
