The Sligo Champion

Tubbercurr­y is up for enterprisi­ng accolade

-

TUBBERCURR­Y was recently entered into a Bank of Ireland sponsored “Enterprise” competitio­n, and judging took place last week at An Chroí. A detailed presentati­on, running over 4 hours was made to the two judges in the presence of over 100 people. Geraldine Brennan, President of Tubbercurr­y Chamber of Commerce and Community Associatio­n opened proceeding­s with a formal welcome and this was followed by presentati­ons on various aspects of enterprise in the community by Roger McCarrick, Paraic Neary, Romauld Mullarkey, Teresa Cawley, Louise Kilbane, David Hosey and young Adam Walsh. An exhibition of over 50 local large and small businesses with their wares was held in the exhibition space of An Chroí both inside and outside the building, and the judges took time to interact and meet every exhibitor. They also visited a number of local businesses including Tool & Gauge, Baxter, Alpha Precision Engineerin­g before a final wrap up of the presentati­on was made. This was a marvellous event and most informativ­e for those locals who attended as well as for the judges. The results will be announced at a Banquet on November 16 th, and hopefully, Tubbercurr­y will be acknowledg­ed for all the effort made in presenting the town in a positive manner.
