Two local men are to be remembered in a fundraising Tractor Run on Sunday October 15th.
Liam Landers, Ballinlard, Tipperary and Michael “Miko” Heffernan from Church Street, Tipperary town were well loved members of the community and supporters of Tractor Runs over the years.
The event planned for Sunday will bring together many of their friends to raise funds for three local organisations.

The event will end with refreshments and a raffle in Roche’s pub on return approximately at 2.30pm.
