Whitechurch goes Racing 2018
July 19, 2018
Friday July 13th saw us host our first Whitechurch Goes Racing evening at Cork Race course, Mallow. This event replaces our Annual Golf Classic which has been hugely successful for the past 20+ years raising many thousands for the club thanks to John Coleman with the help of Committee and Club members. This is our first venture into Horse Racing and was a massive success with over 200 tickets sold and over 45 pages of business's advertising their wares. We really appreciate their support and will make every effort to encourage members to support them.
The evening began with the first of 8 races at 5.45pm. The Sweepstake took place at 8.20pm with Sabrina Goulding, Jerry O Reilly, Noel O Sullivan, Peter O Dwyer and Sean Ring on the favourite Mill Quest. They were in luck with Sean Ring and Sabrina Goulding picking up First and Third prizes,€500 and €200 respectively.
