The first Vintage Show and family Fun day was held in 2008 and it has quickly gained popularity. As well as holding a family day out, the event had the aim of raising funds for local charities, and over the years over 31,000 euro has been donated to organisations like Milford Hospice, St Ita s and Rathfredagh Cheshire Home.[/font][/font]
