BOYLE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
The Boyle Christmas Lights
Team will distribute Raffle cards to ALL Businesses over the coming days for
the Annual Cash Draw with prizes in excess of €1,000 to be won. The team
appeals to all Businesses to promote the raffle and encourage maximum sales.
The annual running costs of the lights is approx. €5,000 and we are this year
faced with an additional cost of installing a new infrastructure/upgrading
system to accommodate the lights to a RECI approved standard. The erection of
the lights commenced Tuesday 7th November in Boyle and again we appeal to
anyone, especially Boyle business owners who can lend a hand for a couple of
hours. If you’d like to get involved please call Dara on 086 406 6976. The
scheduled nights over the next 10 days are this evening (Wednesday 8th) at
6.30pm at the Crescent and Tues 14th & Wednesday 15th November. It takes
approx. 500 voluntary man hours to erect and take down the lights, thus help
would greatly be appreciated.
