COMMUNITY PLAYGROUND

The Playground Committee wish

to thank everybody that so generously supported the recent playground fund raiser. This super effort means that we are well on the way to having the necessary funds we require to get the grant we need for the junior playground. A final figure is not yet available as local businesses and organisations continue to contribute. When that figure is complete, we'll be letting everyone know how incredible Tinahely can be when the whole community works together. The senior recreation area is nearly complete and once all the important details are in place, like insurance and CCTV, it will be opened. A reminder to all local organisations: Let people know what is happening in the community, send your information to info@tinahely.ie
