Information from Kilcullen GAA:

Kilcullen GAA Lights Up 2024 walk starts tonight 08-January 8pm to 9pm for 6 weeks to 12-February-2024, in partnership with RTE's Operation Transformation and Get Ireland walking. Registration will start at 7.50pm, warmup at 7.55pm and the walk starts at 8pm sharp, from the Kilcullen GAA training pitch across from the Astro pitch. RTE cameras will be filming at the first of the Kilcullen GAA Lights Up walk event, they will be there to do a sequence for the Operation Transformation show, on which Kilcullen's Noel O'Connell is a leader, so would be great to have a good attendance out walking / running to support Noel.

Also The Irish Life GAA “Every Step Counts” Challenge is back and  will run for 5 weeks from Monday 08-January to 12-February-2024. Last year Kilcullen GAA and Community completed the My Life Challenge 2023, in 6th place in Leinster with 34,638 steps from 193 participants in 5 weeks which was amazing. Finishing 6th from over 200 clubs competing in Leinster and the NO 1 walking club in Kildare was brilliant last year and we are hoping to finish in the top 5 this year with over 200 participants and break 40,000 steps. To join the challenge, follow the steps below:
1. Download the free MyLife app from GooglePlay /Apple App Store 2. Tap on the social tab on the MyLife App 3. Select challenges 4. Select the challenge for Leinster 5. Tap on Join & Select “Kilcullen GAA”
