Fundraiser for The Murden Family Dundalk

DAMO72 · 15-03-2009 12:33pm #1

Hi Guys , I am holding a fundraiser in the Claret, Castletown rd Dundalk , in aid of the Murden Family who have lost two children in a tragic car accident .
Jenna Casey Murden, age 4, passed away on February 24th. Her brother, little Jayden Casey Murden passed away on Thursday March 4th. They were described as 'two little angels.'
I would appreciate as much support for this as possible ,
The game will be a €20 entry with €10 rebuy's , All the rebuy's will go to the family, the entry fee will be the prizepool (eg. 40 players = €800 prizepool). This will be limited to about 60 entries due to space constraints.
Also anyone that cant make it on the night but would like to make a donation can contact me on 087 7855396 or email me at banditzpoker@yahoo.ie

Also if anyone know's where i could borrow some stacking chairs for this please contact me.

Regard's...Damian

I got these in the post today . I think i will put them into a nice frame and either auction them on the night or add them to a prize. That was very kind of you rob .:)

DAMO72 · 26-03-2009 11:09am

I have recieved another very kind donation of a weekend away for two, from one of my regular player's in blaney .

DAMO72 · 26-03-2009 8:20pm

Has any1 any ideas as to what is the best way to give out the prizes that were donated.
I have a signed copy of life,s a gamble from Roy, I have a €60 ticket for a hibernian poker event, I have 4 wsop 2007 aces singed which i have put into a beautifull frame,
and there is a weekend away for 2 .

oneillMan999 · 26-03-2009 8:41pm

high hand of the night for the weekend away?

a raffle for the wsop 07 thingy?

or the other way round maybe

DAMO72 · 27-03-2009 10:26am

Just a quick reminder guy's about this game tonite , I am giving my time free of charge to raise a few quid for a very worthy cause , All i ask is that you give some of your's to come out for a good nites entertainment and you have a chance of winning a few quid and some nice spot prizes .
Thanks to every1 that has contributed in any way .
Kind Regards ... Damo

no bother. hope it goes well

I would just like to say a big thank you to everyone that turned up for this last nite . We had 45 players creating a prizepool of €900 and 88 rebuy/Add ons making €880 for the fund , all of the donated prizes were raffled off except for the framed WSOP aces which were auctioned, and i was lucky enough to get these for myself for €120. So there was a total of €1000 raised for the Charity from the poker and the auction, Im not sure how much the raffle raised as the family looked after this themselves. There was five places paid out, 1st €400, 2nd €200, 3rd €150, 4th €100, 5th €50.
The family has asked me to thank all the people on here for their overwhelming support and donation,s.
Cheers guy,s for everything...Damo
