The 17th Ted’s Opel Vauxhall Run will take place on August 10.

It will be based just across the County Bounds at The Mills Inn, in Ballyvourney.

Registration takes place on Saturday morning from 9 am with a €20 fee per car.

Each driver will receive a starter pack containing a special mug,  keyring and other goodies.

The first Award of the day will be presented at 10 am and the cars will depart at 10.30 am.

A scenic route will take in some of the Lee Valley's beautiful scenery along with some historic motorsport sections and former rally stages.

The run will pass through Farnanes, Coachford, Dripsey Model, Berrings, Donoghmore Rylane, and Millstreet before returning to the Mills Inn for a BBQ and prizegiving.

There will be an array of spot prizes, special awards and numerous perpetual awards.

“As always we continue the association with the Dogs For the Disabled, a very worthwhile Charity. The difference that these dogs make to some people’s lives is unmeasurable and they need all the funding they can get.

This year we are again delighted to have the continued support of Opel Ireland and Cartell.ie and Casey Caravan Services,” said organiser Ted O’Connell.

All Opel / Vauxhall / Bedford / GM vehicles are welcome to participate regardless of age.

A charity bake sale hosted by Killarney for Palestine was deemed a major success, with the event receiving an extra boost from the appearance of Moglaí Bap of the Belfast rap group Kneecap.

Moglaí Bap, who was in town for Kneecap’s two sold-out concerts at the Gleneagle Arena last Friday and Saturday, led a promotional walk that concluded at the bake sale.
The coffee morning and bake sale took place in the lounge and interior kitchen of the Blacksheep Hostel on New Street on Saturday. It was extended by an hour, running until 2:30 pm, to accommodate the arrival of the walk, which reached the hostel at approximately 1:50 pm. Kneecap is known to organise similar community runs or walks in every town and city where they perform.
Susan Larkin and Lisa O’Sullivan of Killarney for Palestine confirmed the success of the fundraiser. They noted that the appearance of Moglaí Bap “added an extra element of excitement to what was already a wonderful event”.
