Riverstown Community Park is a wonderful amenity to have in the area. Last April lights were added making it safe for use in the winter months. There are ongoing costs associated with the park such as insurance, water charges, electricit­y, refuse collection and general maintenanc­e. Thank you to local groups Shamrock Gaels, Arrow Harps, Community Games and the Agricultur­al Show for their yearly contributi­on to running costs. However, there is always a shortfall. This is an appeal to walkers who use the park on a regular basis to consider becoming a friend of Riverstown Community Park for as little as €5 a month to help ensure this excellent amenity will be maintained into the future. To set up a monthly standing order please contact any of the Park trustees: Ann Kelly 0872288473; John Quinn 0868276579; Sean McDermott 0872637032.
