An update from the AGM of the community development association – the committee for 2011 was formed. We have a number of new members and Liz O’Connor has filled the post of PRO. We would like to thank our outgoing PRO Mary Stack for all her hard work throughout 2010 – she will be greatly missed.

Our first task this year is the Saint Patrick’s day parade. This will kick off from the West End at 12:30 on Thursday March 17th. All are welcome to join in. There will be prizes for Best Float, Best Car, Best Business Window, Best Adult Costume and Best Juvenile Costume. Don’t forget to drop into the Coffee morning in Hourigan’s Lounge, High Street which is in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. Also if you’re looking for something to do the night before the Juvenile GAA club are holding a sports quiz in Hourigan’s also.
