Dunnes Pack-a-bag last Saturday
March 1st, 2010
Hi all
Just like to say a big thank you to all those who helped out last Saturday at the pack-a-bag in Dunnes. We raised over €2,700 for the renovation fund.
A special thank you should go to those who, especially the Rovers, were able to stay there for longer then the three hours. Some even stayed for the whole day. We had great support from Parents as well and we could not of done it without their help, well done all.
Thanks again
Hugh

You can vote as many times as you wish by text (don’t forget to get bill payers permission), I am setting up my 300 webtext with delays everyday, and you can make a web vote once every 24 hours with an email address.

We have 5 mobile numbers in our house, between personal and work phones, and I will set up voting on them this evening. As far as I know we have 300 webtext a month on each number and I will set up a delayed sending of one going every couple of hours. If anyone else need help in setting this up we can help them. Likewise I have several email addresses I can use cast votes so if I do it at a set time each day it will register. Email me on hugh[AT]29thdublin.org if you need help.
