DEVELOPMEN­T GROUP

The date we’ve all been waiting for has arrived; Sunday, June 10, from 10.30 a.m. when we will host our Street Feast ‘The Picnic in the Park ‘18’. We hope everyone can join us for refreshmen­ts in the park and fun and games for the children. The way the street feast works is everyone brings something sweet or savoury to share with others, maybe something to sit on if you wish, someone suggested it might be a good plan to being a mug as we plan not to use disposable if possible or anything you feel would be of use, games for the children if you have some and then come along and enjoy a cuppa and a chat with neighbours. Hopefully the sun will shine and it will be as enjoyable as other years.

We continue to meet every Monday evening in the village to tidy the area and to work on new projects. All help and support is appreciate­d and we’re always delighted to see new faces. Tidy Town judging time is coming up and there is a lot to be done before then. Follow Ballyduff Developmen­t Group Facebook page for info on what’s happening or if you want to share ideas.
