Mullingar Greyhound Stadium To Offer Free Admission For Saturday Card

Friday, 12 November 2021 12:47

The proceeds of their €2 race card will be donated to a local charity.

Greyhound Racing Ireland is offering free admission tomorrow night at Mulllingar Greyhound Stadium in an initiative called Ag Rásaíocht Le Chéile.

With the pandemic reducing the social outlets and opportunities for people to meet, Ag Rásaíocht Le Chéile or Racing Together in English is offering the public the chance to get out and meet people again in a safe environment. The event in particular aims to offer older people or those whose social interactions have been significantly curtailed in the last year and a half an enjoyable night out.

Race cards will be sold separately for €2, with all the proceeds being donated to local charity.

The evening’s racing will be preceded by a minute’s silence in memory of all victims of Covid and our friends and family we have lost since the beginning the pandemic in March 2020.

For further information weekend, visit grireland.ie/lecheile for more information.
