The Laragh/Glendalough Sustainable Energy Community has appointed consultants from the three Counties Energy Agency (3CEA) to undertake a survey of energy usage in the area and to identify options for reducing our dependency on fossil fuels. This will form part of an Energy Master Plan (EMP) that will help us draw down funding to upgrade buildings, both domestic and public, with a view to making them more energy efficient and more comfortable.
A meeting with 3CEA will be held in the Brockagh Centre at 7.30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 11, to outline details of the survey and to explain the data that will be needed to compile the EMP. A representative from the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) will also provide

Our seniors are back training for the last month and although numbers are good we could do with a few more players. If you would like to join up, come down any Tuesday or Thursday at 7.30 p.m. Our first league game takes place at home against Annacurra on Saturday, March 7. All support will be very welcome.
Our juveniles will be back up and running in early March. We hope to see all of last year’s kids back plus many more. For more information on training, age groups, etc. please contact any member. As always, we are looking for more help with our juveniles for the coming season. It would be great for parents/ guardians to get involved even if it is just to put out a few cones to help the coaches.
Our lotto has been a great success to date. While this could not happen without our sellers, it is mainly down to everyone that buys. We appreciate all your continued support.
