A family friendly Drive-in Table Quiz will take place on Sunday 4th October in the Lisdoonan Community Centre Car Park at 2.30pm.
The event is to raise much needed funds for the Irish Community Rapid Response by Land and Air service, which in recent months was used in Castleblayney and surrounding areas a number of times.
Irish Community Rapid Response by Land and Air provide professional emergency pre-hospital care to those in serious life-threatening emergencies and to help protect human life through a network of Volunteer Doctors, Rapid Response Vehicles and a Community Air Ambulance.
On the day each car will make up the team and the questions given by MC from a stage on site will be coming through the car radio, therefore everyone attending will be given a frequency to tune their car radio for the quiz.
Tickets: €30 per car

Tae Kwon-Do is a Korean Martial Art, combining combat and self-defence techniques with sport and also exercise. It was first developed in the 1940’s by a variety of Korean Masters as a partial combination of taekkyeon, okinawan karate and other traditions. These exciting classes provide a great opportunity for individuals to learn a new skill and Taekwondo also helps build fitness, self-confidence, self-defence techniques and discipline.
