In this episode part 1 of our sporting section which will cover other areas in the country, Danny Houlihan will take a look back at an event the Ballybunion Races that were held in the area of the town in the year June 1888 and details the from the Kerry Evening Post and other old faded local historical sources which Danny has consulted and its ironic that this June the Ballybunion races will be held once more in Ballyeagh Strand. So I hope to get down there and sample the atmosphere and report back in another episode.
