Motor festival helps to raise money for Reach charity
The organisers were delighted with the turn out not only from the fans who came from all over Northern Ireland and as far as County Kildare but the support from North Armagh Car Club.
There were more than ninety cars on display, mainly competition cars and a number of local dealers had new car displays. A number of trade stands and attractions for children helped to make it a great family day out.
