Posted: Sun Apr 29, 2018 12:40 pm
Year 4 of attempting to catalog a listing of the various hurling events (not limited to pumpkin-throwing, though that does seem to be the vast majority) that are occurring and open to the public to enter. As you hear of other ones with confirmed dates, and preferably a website link too, let me know and I'll add them here to make them easy to find! Please let me know of any that I've missed!
