Mammoth truck run fundraiser at obama plaza
A mammoth truck run that will take place this Sunday May 31st organised by Tierney International & the Barack Obama Plaza in Monegyall. With a variety of truck’s taking to the roads of Offaly and Tipperary the aim is to raise vital funds to support the important work of the BUMBLEance, which is a specially adapted ambulance for children. It’s the world’s first fully interactive and most modern ambulance service for children and provides stress-reducing journeys for sick children in state-of-the-art, safe and fun vehicles.
Jennifer Tierney from Tierney International stated: “We as a company wanted to organise an event to help raise the profile of the important work the BUMBLEance is doing and in doing so we wanted to raise funds to assist their amazing work. Our industry is one which always steps up to the mark for important causes and as a family business we are delighted to be leading the charge for this event.”
Registration will commence at 12 noon with trucks departing at 2.30pm from the Barack Obama Plaza. The route will run from Moneygall, Toomevara, Nenagh, Borrisokane, Birr, Roscrea, Dunkerrin and return to the Barack Obama Plaza.
Manager of the Barack Obama Plaza Henry Healy added: “We are delighted to be able to host this event, we have facilitated fundraisers for BUMBLEance since our opening last year and when approached by Tierney International with the idea we were only delighted to come on board.”
The Barack Obama Plaza will be providing face painting, balloon artists and various cartoon characters to keep the family entertained and we will also be joined on the day by the BUMBLEance.
