    The race starts at 1PM at the swimming pool in Trim and finishes at the new road bridge. Teams can enter the 2 man or 4 man category. Think its 25 euro per person and the proceeds go to Trim Canoe Club to pay for new polo boats. There are also prizes for best dressed raft and titanic award for first to sink. Its good crack. Better than looking at a parade of tractors.

    Amen to that... But did I hear they got a new fire engine this year? :eek: The excitement is too much!

    I'm quite interested in the raft race this year, think I might get my thinking cap on next week, try round up a few troops, gather a few ideas.

    I think the closing date is fast approaching for entrants for the raft race. There are posters up around the town for details. Good luck.

    The new bridge? You mean the old one. The new one is only 20 yards from the swimming pool ;)
