Family and friends of the late Tom Leahy are organising a tractor and car run in his memory. This inaugural event will take place on Monday, 2nd January 2023 – departing Castlelyons at 12 noon.
Plans are well advanced for the fundraiser, with proceeds being divided between Marymount and Friends Of Dean & Padraig. A spokesperson for the organising committee said the run was a fitting way to remember Tom.
“We are getting a very good response and all going well, we will have a big crowd of modern tractors and vintage cars on the 2nd January,” they said.
