On Saturday Sept 30th Thurles Greyhound Stadium will play host to a relay race to find our fastest family. Teams of 3 (must have a gender mix!) will compete for this prestigious title where each team member will run a lap of the track cheered on by a partisan local crowd. Have your gang got what it takes to meet this challenge? If the answer is yes then you need to do 3 things:
- find two other family members who are prepared to give it a go!
- contact any committee member to get your spot on the starting line
- get training!!
Being a fairly modern outfit, we're open minded as to what constitutes a family but our imagination has it's limits. Preference is for at least two direct family members (siblings / parent etc, perhaps joined by 1st cousin, in-law etc. It goes without saying (but we'll say it anyway) that the organising committee's ruling on such important matters shall be final. Participants must be 18yrs of age sometime this year to participate - you can be as old as you like but you wont be getting a head start!!
We'll also be running the normal buster dog race on the night, auction of the relay teams , live music and loads of fun. Ticket will be ready shortly so watch this space.
This could be your clan's moment to shine so don't be shy and get in contact if interested in entering.
