Colours are definitely the SMILES of nature.
Kilteevan Tidy Towns would like to express a sincere thank you to Jim Mc Causland and Casey’s Londis for the generous gift of Spring Bulbs which we collected today.
Something to look forward to!
Have you noticed the amazing new Curlew structure on the Boyle Road roundabout in Roscommon town? If not have a look!
The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) unveiled the new Curlew structure to celebrate and raise awareness about this iconic Irish bird which sadly remains under threat.
Donegal artist, Brendan Farren was commissioned to create the structure from willow. The structure celebrates the importance of the locality for Curlew and is definitely a topic of conversation in Roscommon today.
Kilteevan is one of the few remaining places that can claim the presence of curlews.
The Curlew Conservation Programme engages with local communities, clubs, farmers and landowners and is encouraging all of us to work together to save this iconic bird. Let’s ensure future generations hear that evocative call.
Well Done NPWS, Curlew Conservation Programme, Brendan Farren and all involved in this worthwhile this project.
Last night September 1st brought Tidy Towns 2020 to a close in Kilteevan. While there was no Tidy Towns Competition this year, the committee agreed to work alone or socially distant to keep Kilteevan looking well.
To mark the end of the year, last night Chairperson Eileen Fahey announced that Mattie Murphy was the Volunteer of the Year. Eileen stated that Mattie at 91 years of age was an inspiration. To paraphrase Ghandi, Eileen said “Mattie is an example of how, in your own gentle, wise way, you can shake the world”.
Congratulations and thank you Mattie for your continuous contribution to your community.
Offers of help and assistance are always welcome to Kilteevan Tidy Towns.
