Buncrana GAA seeks your votes
10.11.13
BUNCRANA GAA is
urgently seeking your votes to help it win Better
Together, a national online video competition.
The club is hoping that the local community will
rally behind it and give it the votes it needs to
win the €1,000 top prize.
Better Together is a nationwide campaign which aims
to build support for hundreds of charities,
community groups, clubs and associations across the
country by encouraging the public to support these
good causes and make a difference in their
communities.
“Anyone can vote for us no matter where they are in
the world,” said club Chairman Paul McGonigle. “The
video gives a short snapshot of the wider role the
club plays in the local community, what it does make
this place a better place for all of us to live in.
I’d say a lot of people will be surprised at the
range of things we’re involved in.” |

The club is the only entry from Inishowen and is
hoping for votes from all over the peninsula and
further afield too. “We’d really like people to use
social media like Facebook and Twitter to get the
message out there, to tell their friends and
contacts about it and get online to vote. Hitting
the ‘Like’ button on Facebook isn’t enough, people
have to click the ‘Vote’ icon on the competition
website,” said Paul.
The video was made for the club by local companies
Crana Communications and The Memory Factory. Harry
Kerr of The Memory Factory said he was delighted to
be involved and that it was his way of contributing
something to the club. “It was a great experience
for us to do this. We’re looking at developing this
side of our business, promotional videos and
corporate work, so it was a good exercise in that
sense too.”
Voting closes on November 22.
