HILLBILLY RUN

March 23rd, 2014

Hi-my name is Ben D’Alton-I am hon. sec/PRO of the Hillbilly Festival which takes place around the Blessington Lakes in scenic Co. Wicklow on Sunday, June 29th this year. This will be our 10th anniversary and to celebrate we are hoping to have our biggest and best ever festival. The day includes a run of vintage tractors, machinery, vintage cars and motorcycles and includes a parade through Blessington representing the farming, business, sport and voluntary organisations of this thriving town on Dublin’s doorstep.

Participants register in Lacken between 8.30 and 11.30am. Vehicles are on show to the public until 12.45 at which time they set off on a leisurely run-cars and tractors have slighly different routes-but all arrive in Blessington at 2pm to join in with the parade.

At the same time in Lacken there will be a massive field day with entertainment for all the family, demonstrations of traditional skills, stalls, food for everyone-early registrations get a full breakfast and everyone will get dinner. There will also be a programme of music and dancing throughout the day.

We would be grateful if you could bring this to the attention of your members as we look forward to making many new friends at this, our tenth year. We would also welcome anyone who would just like to put a vintage machine on display and not necessarily take part in the run. The West Wicklow Classic and Vintage Car Club are looking after the programme for the day so everyone will be in good hands.

I can be contacted at this email address or by phone at 087 9403049 or you can see us on Facebook at Hillbilly Run

Many thanks in anticipation
