Competitive golfing has resumed at Killarney Golf and Fishing Club marking another step towards normality in the locality.

The O’Mahony’s Point course hosted an open singles event on Monday last and this competition will continue every Monday for the rest of the summer.

Meanwhile the club’s 'TaylorMade’ Summer Series gets underway at the famed Killeen course this coming Wednesday (June 23). This series will continue every Wednesday for eight weeks and top five scorers on each date will qualify for a Grand Final which is scheduled for Sunday, August 22.

“We are delighted to launch the 'TaylorMade’ Summer Series. This is a singles stableford event taking place on the Irish Open course, Killeen,” said the club’s marketing manager Meg Dalton. “With over €8,000 worth of prizes to be won, this is an event not to be missed. The first opportunity to qualify for the grand final is Wednesday.”

Kerry Friends of Motor Neurone (KFMN) was one of seven local charities to receive funding from Ballybunion Golf Club Lady Captain Mags O’Sullivan’s Charity Golf Classic.

At a presentation on October 5, Mags O’Sullivan presented a cheque for €5,000 to KFMN at Ballybunion Golf Club.
The donation was made in memory of her late friend Angela Fahy, a former Lady Captain and President of the club, who passed away from Motor Neurone Disease.
Pat Kelleher and Christy Lehane accepted the cheque on behalf of KFMN and thanked Mags, Lady President Aideen O’Leary, and the organising committee for their generosity and hospitality.
He said the donation will provide vital support for the charity’s ongoing work assisting those living with Motor Neurone Disease in Kerry.
“Fundraising is becoming increasingly difficult, so this contribution makes a real difference,” he said.

There were celebrations at Raheen National School this week as SNA Gráinne Lenihan presented a cheque for €5,302.23 to Principal Joan Mullane, the proceeds from her recent skydiving fundraiser in aid of the school.

Gráinne organised the ‘Her Health, Her Power’ initiative last July, which culminated in her completing a skydive in August to raise funds for Raheen NS. The money will go towards the development of the school pitch and a new perimeter race track for the entire Raheen community.
Pictured at the presentation were members of the parents’ committee Joan Bowler, Máire O’Leary, and Ann Marie Donovan, along with school staff Norrissa O’Donoghue, Conor Coffey, Linda Farrell, and Mark Egan, joined by the delighted students of Raheen NS.
