Mary O’Connor and Colin House from Woodlawn Killarney got a great surprise when they received a call from Killarney Credit Union to find out they had won a brand new Nissan Juke in the Killarney Credit Union Members' Draw.

Mary and Colin collected their fantastic new car adhering to all current health guidelines, from Mark Murphy, CEO at the Beech Road office.

"It is great to give people such a nice surprise in these current times, Mary and Colin were so excited about their win," Karena McCarthy, Marketing Officer Killarney Credit Union, said.

"We currently have just over 2,400 members in the draw which is held twice a year. Our prizes include a new car and cash ranging from €250 to €5,000 cash. Our next draw will take place in July.”

Members can apply for the draw at any of the branches in Killarney, Kenmare and Cahersiveen, or download an application form online www.killarneycu.ie. €12 will be taken from the members account twice a year as an entry fee for the Members' Draw.

The cash prize winners were Eileen Daly, Maria Cionelo, Mary and Patrick O’Keeffe, Mary McCarthy, Mary O’Connor, Daniel J Doona, Elizabeth Crosbie, Mohd Rezaul, Michael J Heavy, Joan and John Culloty, and Marie Healy.
The draw was adjudicated by solicitor Eoin Brosnan and KCU Risk and Compliance Manager Shane Foley in the credit union offices.
“The draw is limited to members of Killarney Credit Union and anyone over the age of 18 can apply to join, so for €2 a month you can be entered into the draw. We would encourage members to sign up, if they haven’t already. As the saying goes, "if you’re not in, you can’t win”," Karena added.

Killarney Rally Masters has confirmed two more high-profile additions for its event at Killarney Racecourse on Saturday, September 27.

Irish rally icon Andrew Nesbitt and Swedish star Kalle Grundel have been added to the list of competitors.
Nesbitt will drive his famous Mitsubishi Lancer WRC, the car he used to win the 2006 Donegal International Rally. The Killarney event will be the last chance for Irish fans to see the car before it heads to San Marino for Rally Legend the following weekend. Nesbitt is a two-time winner of the Rally of the Lakes.
In a remarkable story, Grundel will be reunited with a man involved in a frightening incident from the 1986 Circuit of Ireland Rally. Nearly 40 years ago, Grundel’s Ford RS200 struck a young spectator who ran onto the road. The man, now grown, will meet Grundel for the first time at the Killarney event. An RS200 will also be part of the reunion.
The one-day showcase will feature 50 cars from the Group B, Group A, and early WRC eras. Other confirmed drivers include Billy Coleman and Patrick Snijers in BMW M3s, and World Rally Championship driver Josh McErlean in a Ford Focus WRC.
Organised by Killarney and District Motor Club, with support from Motorsport Ireland and Kingfisher Insurance the event will raise funds for the Jack and Jill Foundation and Laura Lynn Children’s Hospice.
Tickets are already selling fast and organisers expect a sell-out well in advance of rally day.
