ROSSES ANGLER'S ASSOCIATION CHARITY FUNDRAISER.
The rosses anglers would like to thank everyone that made our fundraiser another great success this year we had 29 anglers fishing on the day with some beautiful fish caught on the mountain lakes, it was a perfect fishing day with light winds and temperatures reaching the high teens, our beifeficiaries this year are the Dungloe Hospital patient comfort fund, and the Daycare centre the angle Dungloe, we are still waiting on some donations but we are looking at roughly 1500 euro raised which is an amazing amount which will be split equally between the two groups, we will post photos on our site when we present the cheques.
Results of the day, 1st place Paul Forbes 2nd place Peader o'bhaoil, 3rd place Eugene Boyle, 4th place Columba O'Donnell & Harry Whoriskey, 6th place, John j. O'Donnell, 7th Colin O'Brien, 8th Declan Bonner, 9th Ciaran Bonner, 10th Scot Doyle. All anglers on the day got a prize and a great plate of food in the Waterfront Hotel a big thanks to the hotel staff especially the head chef for a great feed.
A big thanks to all the sponsors of prizes, cash, cheques, vouchers without the generosity of these people we would find it hard to run such a competition we are always looking for sponsors of this competition and if you would like to donate you can contact us through whatsapp or donate through paypal rossesanglers@gmail.com and leave a short message, it is often asked what the Rosses Anglers donate to this charity event, apart from all the work involved the club always pick up the food bill which can be substantial, i guess there is only one other bunch of people to thank and that is you the anglers who have supported us through the year and we thank you all and hope to see you return next year for another great season. Go raibh mile maith agat.
