The quiz night would not be possible without their generous donations and we encourage our members and friends to support these businesses who helped make it a great evening and offer funding for club facilities. The event helped raise €4,500 for the club.

We would also like to thank Blackrock A.C. members and volunteers who sourced or donated some of the great prizes. They are Audrey Burns, Barry Thornton, Caitriona Brennan, David Martin, Imelda and James Curran, Mark Cafferkey, Nuala Hunt, Paul Walshe, Rob asher, Ruth Kennedy, Sinead Howard and Sorcha Brady.

Finally, Blackrock A.C. Quiz Night is hosted each year by Mr Peter Cosgrove who, in true club volunteer style, pulls in the help of the Cosgrove family on the evening to help with the scoring, raffling and all the logisitics involved in running the quiz once it starts. So a big thank you to Peter and his family for all their help and support over the past ten years’ of the Blackrock A.C. Quiz Night.

Until next year!
