GREENWAY FOR A DAY

Over 500 people turned out for the ‘ Greenway For A Day’ event last Sunday 21st at Lavagh. The Greenway Co- op organisers are delighted with the response on a damp day and consider this further progress in the ultimate goal of achieving a greenway for Sligo.

Walkers and cyclists, old and young, all experience­d a possible glimpse of a facility realizable in the very near future. It is hoped that the Greenway for a Day event will be repeated. Thanks to everyone who helped to organize and all who attended.
