Club Lotto Standing Order
Ever see the Glen Lotto accumulate to several thousand pounds and not physically able to buy a ticket? Well now you can be entered into the weekly lotto automatically when you pay via a standing order. The cost of this standing order is £12 which will be taken out of your account once every three months! The weekly jackpot begins at £500 and quite often rolls over for a number of weeks meaning a bigger jackpot on regular occasions. How do you set this up? Simply download the 'Lotto Standing Order' form from the Club Document's Section (found under the 'Membership' tab) on the Watty Website - complete fully and give to Frankie Kearney (via email on [email protected] or contact him on mobile number 07716757223).
Club Glen
As many of you will know there has been a 'Club Glen' initiative operating over the past few years and which a number of members are already a part of - however we need more numbers!! 'Club Glen' is £10 per month or £30 per quarter year which works out at £2.50 per week! This regular contribution is quite easy to set up via a 'Club Glen' regular standing order. You can download the standing order form on the home page of the Watty website or alternatively you can contact Frank Kearney directly on 07716757223 and all can be set in place for you. We are aware that many of our members and the wider GAA are feeling the pinch however such a small contribution would be a worthwhile investment when balanced against the magnificent feel-good factor we all have experienced from the outstanding success for our Club last year. It's now great to see so many more people following our club and it's brilliant to have you on board with us and you are welcome to play your part. Do please take this opportunity to help move YOUR CLUB onwards and upwards!
