MOTION NO. 13

MOTION: Councillor E. Higgins

"That this Council congratulates all volunteers across Clondalkin, Rathcoole, Newcastle who made the fantastic array of Christmas events possible this year in particular all those involved in lighting up our villages for Christmas and events that brought the festive spirit to life throughout our communities."

REPORT:

A wide range of local Christmas Celebration events where organised by local community groups in the Clondalkin, Rathcoole and Newcastle areas and also right across the different local villages and communities throughout the County. The local Community Development Teams worked with these local groups to provide advise and assistance including some financial assistance to help cover some of the costs of these events.

All local events were found to be very successful, very well attended and demonstrated great community spirit within the local communities in the county.
