Playground fundraiser in newport on sunday
Newport College will host a fun day this Sunday in an event organised by the committee spearheading the playground project for the town.
Families from Newport and surrounding areas turned out in large numbers to support the inaugural fun day last year and the Committee hoping that even larger numbers will attend this year's event on Sunday, which begins at 1pm. The list of attractions on Sunday include a mechanical rodeo bull, giant slide, two large obstacle courses, bouncy castles, inflatable toddler zone, go karts, hurling and soccer penalty shootouts, demolition ball, face painting, wheel of fortune, cock a doodle pool, mini fire brigade, food, music, and much more.
All attractions for under 4s are free of charge and there will be several lots of items for an auction again this year including turf, blocks, signed Munster, Limerick and Tipp jerseys. Tom Ryan of the local Centra has kindly provided generous sponsorship to assist with the running off the event.
