They would also like to give a special thanks to all who helped out on the day including the Acorn volunteers, Ollie Kelly, Brendan and Madeline Doyle for helping set the course and time keeping and to Grow Ireland for their Information table and to the Sponsors, Stone House Cash & Carry, Providers and David Reilly Fruit & Veg Market Square, Longford for their kind donations.
