‘Honner’s Army’ can help run shows

GET more young people on board, urged Macra President Thomas Honner , when he recently performed the official opening of the Cappamore, Co Limerick Golden Jubilee Agricultural Show, jointly with Donal Kelly, Munster Vice-president IFA.

The show was founded in 1954 by the local Macra members, and has become one of the leading rural agricultural shows in the country.

Getting youngsters into roles of responsibility is vital for the survival of rural agricultural shows, said Mr Honner.
