A massive THANK YOU to everyone who turned out today to support the Ballyboughal GFC Duck Race! The atmosphere in the village was electric, and seeing the river filled with yellow was a sight to behold.
This event was a huge success, but it simply wouldn't have stayed afloat without the incredible army of volunteers and the unwavering support of our community.
🌟 A Special Shout-Out
We want to give a massive, heartfelt thank you to John and Joanne Cahill, along with Michael, Rory, and Orla. This family has practically "given up their lives" over the last few weeks to ensure everything went off without a hitch. From logistics to labor, they’ve worked tirelessly to make sure today was a "ducking" success! We are so lucky to have you in the club.
🏆 The Winners’ Enclosure
Congratulations to Noel O’Brien! His Lucky Duck #956 was first past the post to scoop the top prize of €1,000!
Whether you bought a duck, helped at the finish line, or cheered from the bridge—thank you for making this a day to remember for the club.
Up the 'Boughal! 🟢⚪️
