If Voltaire Diamonds signs on to sponsor an event the probability is very high that it is going to be an all out glam shindig! Couple that with the fact that it is for an extraordinary cause and the fabulousness of thelaunch party, and it is pretty much a done deal that Ireland's First Annual Cannon Ball Run is going to be 3 days worth taking part in!
Kicking off at 7 am this Friday morning, the run , in aide of Barrestown Children's Charity, promises to be three days of fun, flash cars and beautiful Irish countryside...oh and did I mention, they are raffling off a Ferrarri 360 Spider, compliments of Richford Motor Company??
The 'Runners' will travel from Dublin, Kinsale, Killarney, Killaloe, Galway and back again, raising money, having laugh and doing really good thing, as each car entry fee (of €500) goes directly to Barrestown.
For those not familiar with Barrestown, it is a children's charity and camp set up by the late Paul Newman;
'Barretstown is a specially designed camp, providing a programme of adventure, activities and fun - backed by the medical world - which helps children with serious illness regain their confidence and self-esteem.' Check out their good works for yourself, and if you can't take part this weekend, donate!
Another equally swank sponsor, Residence, held the kick off party a few weeks back and let me tell you, it was a killer party - just check out some pics below! So, do what you can, and if any of you "runners" are out there, let me know! I'd love to post all about the trip and if you have any snaps pass them on!
