St Stephen's Day Treasure Hunt

Post by joebe1 »

For the last 3 years the guys and gals from the west have come out over the christmas to spin around for the day and this year is no different!!!!

This year we ve decide to change things a small bit and move away from the traditional format. We have decide to move east around the longford area, and run a treasure hunt that was devised a number of years ago but never went ahead.

This plans to be a great day out as it is somethin completly different, and as i am hopin to co ordinate the dinner with the leitrim vintage club it will be a great opertunity to meet new people and see some fantastic cars.

There is a lot of organising involved so we are hopin to see as many face as possible, :D :D :D

I'd love to be going along on the run Joe but the drawback of coming from a large family means that visitng relations will restrict my movement.

Best of luck with it and here's hoping for a nice crisp dry day for it.
