Default car show n.ireland ballymena car fest 2009

hi just to let you know about a show in ballymena on june 13 more volvos the better book in now at www.ballymenacarfest.com all money is going to macmillan cancer support
many thanks
colin


Edit: Update with further information:
Ok, got the info pack and have had a look through it..

Saturday 13th June, gates open 11.30am - 4.30pm Ballee Playing Fields Ballymena

All show cars are expected to be in place by 11am and cannot be move until show is over, gate opens for show cars at 8am

Special 50th Anniversary of the Mini

Show is open to all Vintage, Classic, Modern Classic & modified showcars

All proceeds to MacMillan Nurses

Entry fee £10 ( Driver plus 1 passenger ) Extra passengers charged as per gate

Adults £3 under 12's free

Show n Shine
Truck display
Catering Refreshments
Kids enterainment
Club Stands
Trade Stands
Motorsports Display

All entry fee's to be paid by the 5th of May, i will look after this, but in order for me to have the fee paid on time i need to have a cheque / postal order by the 1st May along with Full name, address, phone number, email address, car reg, make model, year, they need to know class entered too, but i assume most will be modern classic (1972 - 1996). PM me for my address to forward cheque too.

Reading through this it would appear my S70 doesnt fit in, and its not likely my 740 will be ready on time and the 940 isnt much of a show car, so i might not have anything on stand

What about a Volvo stand at this, it the 13th of June and all fees go to McMullan Cancer. Anyone interested post up in this thread, if enough interest i will make the neccessary arragements. Its £10 per car + driver, extra passengers charged on the day @ £3 children under 12 get in free. Seems any car qualifys, so i might take my Turf Burner as well to get numbers up, there is space for 12 cars on the club application.

I'll Kick off...

This is a great opportunity for Volvo owners in Ireland, especially as it's not limited to classics; I reckon it could be a bit of a head turner for other car owners especially if there's a few niceties on the stand!

I just really regret I won't be there to help out!! I might have some blue/white, blue/yellow and a Swedish flag for decoration your welcome to, and off course the yellow 'Volvo Meet' sign!

Hey Mark, thats great, was chattin to darren, my aim would be for 5 Volvo's, i could supply 3 of them lol, so i'll count you as a definate? Transport museum was a bit of a disappointment tbh, only myself and Darren from the Volvo side, 1 guy from the dubbers and 1 guy from the mini club, that combined with half the museum being closed too, was worth seeing, not worth going to see as the man says

As far as i know Darren leaves this thursday :O

I've emailed the organisers and had a reply, cut off date for entry is the 5th of May, all entry fee's to be paid by then, he's going to post me an entry pack, so i'll update further when i get it.

@ Mark, Darren reminded me you had a C30 as well, would you like it on the stand too
