Record Year for Millstreet Vintage Club

By MICHELLE LANE, PRO of Millstreet Vintage Club

Millstreet Vintage Club is a forward thinking club with its feet firmly on the ground, with all wheels facing and going in the same direction with a number of years. It has set new standards in the Vintage Scene, with prompt start-times, and detailed sinage for participants. Each arrow is numbered and matching on a road book, so nobody gets lost. At Millstreet Vintage Club, we encourage our youth to join our club who have a similar interest and bring new ideas and given a little encouragement, will organise events. For example, included in our 2025 calendar is an Eircode Challenge, a new concept that we believe will be a revolution and attracting more drivers and easier events to organise, with more fun.

2024 had 14 events on the calendar- yes a very big number of events- where the Clerk of the Course picked whatever charity they want to support, hence each person does as good a job as possible for their chosen charity. 2024 events raised €50,707.32 which supported Hollymount National School, Millstreet Pitch & Putt, St John’s Well, Kerry Cancer Support Group, Mallow Day Care Centre, Millstreet Community Hospital, Critical Emergency Medical Response, Bumbleance Children’s Ambulance, St Joseph’s Foundation, Cork Cancer Connect Bus, Millstreet Tidy Towns and C.A.R.T Carriganima Area Rural Transport Bus.

Great teamwork ensures each event goes well while also enjoying the atmosphere of the day.

Millstreet Vintage Club will be celebrating 15 years in 2025 and we will be looking forward to celebrating this historic milestone. We would like to thank all businesses, sponsors, members and car enthusiasts that both supported us and held events throughout the year. It’s very much appreciated. Membership is open to everyone to join Millstreet Vintage Club for 2025 and it is €20 for the year which includes texts about our upcoming events and meetings.
