CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) is a charity set up to support patients and families who have lost someone to sudden cardiac death.
The Ardfert Tractor Run takes place annually with a different charity chosen every year, so this year, as a tribute to Lillie, they are holding it for CRY.
The organisers are hoping to break their record with 137 plus tractors on the day of the run on Sunday, August 9th. They will gather for registration at 11am in the Village Green and the run starts at 1.30pm. Entry fee is €20 per tractor.
There’ll be fun and games in the Village Green from 1pm to 5pm, with refreshments in the Green after the run.
