Eileen Fahey Chairperson, Kilteevan Tidy Towns and Leonora Neary Artist, officially releasing Cloonlarge Loop Birds Biodiversity Calendar 2022 in the Abbey Hotel Roscommon.
This unique limited edition collector’s item is based on research carried out by Laura Gallagher, Conservation Ranger, National Parks and Wildlife Service. Each bird was magnificently illustrated by Leonora Neary Roscommon artist and life-long nature lover. The calendar is designed by Fiona Dunne, FDDesign Roscommon. We wish to acknowledge Kevin Fannon, Kilteevan Tidy Towns for proposing Cloonlarge Birds as our 2022 theme. Thanks also to our Heritage Officer, Nollaig Feeney for being a constant stalwart and support in all matters relating to our heritage.
Given current government guidelines, we felt it was safer not to host a coffee morning to distribute the calendars. Please contact Tidy Towns Committee members if you would like to receive one. The calendars are free but in return we would graciously welcome any donation to support our environmental work.
This project was funded by the Department of Housing, local Government and Heritage under the Peatlands Community Engagement Scheme 2021
Artistry and design funded by National Biodiversity Action Plan Funding Scheme
A very different Tidy Towns results day but a great day for Kilteevan Tidy Towns – Winners of the Tidy Towns 2021 National Heritage Award. The award was sponsored by The Heritage Council.
A wonderful achievement for our small Community! We have also received an increase of 11 marks in the 2021 competition giving Kilteevan an overall mark of 301 points. Our adjudicator stated that “A visit to Kilteevan is definitely on my immediate wish list. The Community of Kilteevan should be rightly proud of its achievements.”
Kilteevan Tidy Towns would like to express a sincere thank you to everyone who has helped us in any way to achieve this outstanding result.
