We're back baby!!!!!!
Jumpstart is once again Loughmore bound!
And this time, we're chasing the sun by moving to April this year, Saturday April 25th from 11am to be exact.....
.........................well, we can't have Jon White looking this cold again
This year we're changing things slightly by having defined parking areas for specific models as well as a number of trade stands and of course we'll still have the old favourites like spot prizes, goodie bags, show stickers and with lots of media coverage guaranteed you better put on your Sunday best.........even if it is a Saturday
Will we beat the 106 VWs we had last year? We'd love to think so but that can only happen with your help so now you know the date, you just need to have your VW ready and in Loughmore for Saturday April 25th 2015. See you there

UPDATE - March 11thThe 2015 poster design has arrived from Lemorris in Arizona. You can see this year we have a new logo on the poster, TLC4CF
Why a charity? Well, as usual, Jumpstart is totally free to everyone and the early birds get goodie bags (until they run out) but everyone will get a Jumpstart poster and a Jumpstart sticker as well as having the opportunity to win some amazing prizes throughout the day so with that in mind, we thought it would be a nice gesture to help out if we could.
Why Cystic Fibrosis (CF) as the chosen charity? Some of you may or may not know that our very own Gritz has first hand experience with what CF can do as his own son Brian is a CF patient. He's a great kid, who, at 19yrs old should be doing everything he wants (and everything a father doesn't want a son to do ) but is unfairly restricted from living the same carefree life his friends due to CF. Anyone who knows Gritz and his family will have seen the impact CF has on patients and families and the wonderful work TLC4CF does so when the Jumpstart crew were deciding on a charity it was a no-brainer. It had to be TLC4CF
With that in mind, if you feel like getting rid of some of that loose change rattling around in your pocket, why not toss a few coins (or notes ) into one of the donation buckets which will be at the registration point, the Cottage and even in the pub, should anyone of you find your way in there........but don't worry, nobody will be shaking the buckets under your nose, this is a fun day out and if you want to help TLC4CF that's great, if you don't that's cool too.
Who are TLC4CF?
TLC4CF - Tipperary, Limerick, Clare for Cystic Fibrosis aims to improve services & facilites for all Cystic Fibrosis patients in the Mid West Region. TLC4CF need to raise €4.2 million for a new dedicated CF Inpatients & Outpatients Unit in the region and with our help we can hopefully contribute to their tally.
