The school traditionally run the car parks on the approach roads to the circuit for the event.
Maeve Walsh is secretary of the Faugheen 50 club.
“We don’t ask anyone to pay, we just ask, if you could at all possible, leave a donation. Because, obviously, they’re a small local school and they could definitely do with the funds. Our scouts in Carrick will be around selling the programmes, they’ll be at the circuit entrances.”
