Donegal’s only five star hotel, Lough Eske Castle launches its annual Christmas food appeal and Christmas light switch-on event on December 4th next.
The Castle invites everyone to help support the St Vincent de Paul by bringing non-perishable food, such as tinned soups, pasta and sauces, to feed local Donegal families in need during the festive period.
“The charity involved provides invaluable support for families across Donegal and we are pleased to be supporting this great work once again,” said Seán Carney, General Manager of Lough Eske Castle. “We’ve had fantastic success with previous appeals and would like to invite the Donegal community to once again join us in making Christmas special for everyone this year.”
The Castle is working alongside Kavanagh’s Supervalu in Donegal and both locations will be collecting food items from Sunday 4th December until 24th December for this deserving cause.
Sunday the 4th December not only marks the launch of Lough Eske Castle’s charity drive, but will also see the annual light switch-on ceremony with performances by Tirconaill Youth Choir and a Children’s Disco.
The winner of the Castle’s annual story writing competition this year is Darragh Crawford from Little Angels School in Letterkenny who will be crowned The Prince of the Castle – The Prince will be treated to a Signature Christmas Tea Party with his classmates on the day.
Don’t forget the camera for some fantastic photo opportunities – visitors might even catch one of Santa Claus himself!
