DUST off the quiz books, unearth family quiz games and get a friend’s phone number ready.
The Who Wants to Be a Thou- sandaire quiz night is all set to go this Friday and Queally’s Super- value in Killaloe are right behind the cause, putting up the cash this week for what promises to be a great night.
While smart competitors stand to walk away with the thousand crisp ones, the real winners from the night will be the communities of Tuamgraney and Scariff, with hopes
high that €20,000 can be raised for projects in the two areas.
The 50/50 joint effort of the Scariff Community Council and the Tuam- eraney Development Association’s organisation on the night will help fund a playground for the riverside park development, which has been improving every year and the contin- ued development and upgrading of the memorial park in Tuamgraney.
The Palace Marketing Group have been brought on board to stage the event, which will be just like the real SUVA deveeree
“It should be a great night out and people will have loads of fun. If
someone doesn’t want to compete personally, they can nominate anoth- er person or we will pick someone for them at random from a panel. But the person who bought the ticket gets the prize money,’ said Damien Heaney, spokesperson for the organisers.
A huge amount of organisation went into the night, with six teams of six working under two co-ordina- tors, Margaret O’Meara, PRO of the Tuamgraney Development Associa- tion and Harry O’Meara, Chairman of the Scariff Community Council.
Local businesses have also rowed in behind the event, with Centra in Scariff, Finsa Forest Products and
Sports World Netting coming in as three of the sponsors.
The organisers are expecting up to ten rounds on the night at Scarf Community College from 8pm.
Tickets are €10 each.
