Congratulations & Well Done to

Athea Tidy Towns

The Tidy Towns results were out yesterday.  Athea gained a massive 28 points in the competition, which is pretty much unheard of in the competition (the most a town / village has increased in points was 15 points). It was the second largest increase in points in the country yesterday. This has won us an endeavour award, as we also had the largest increase in points in the County of Limerick. We will be presented with a certificate and a cheque for €500 at the Regional Awards Ceremony in  October/ November.  Yesterday was indeed a very proud day for the parish!

(We hope to include a copy of the Tidy Towns Report in the Newsletter next week with all the details).
