Loughglynn Foroige Make Top 6.

Loughglynn Foroige Club held their area proud when they travelled to Dublin Castle on Wednesday the 30th October for the Foroige Youth Citizenship Awards. We were ome of six clubs to make it through to the national finals. Our project was titled Carbon Monoxide and Fire Safety Awareness.

We held an awareness night when local fireman Micheal Frain came to talk to and inform people on the subject. We sold carbon monoxide alarms at a reduced cost of €12 on the night. We followed this up by putting it in local papers and on our local radio station, Mid West Radio.

We entered the Citizenship Regional competition during the summer which we won this going through to the National final battling it out against five other clubs. Unfortunately, we didn’t win the national final but we had a great day in Dublin Castle and we did Loughglynn proud.

There are a number of members from this club who are students in St. Nathys College: Stephie Hannelly, Christina Barron, Jennifer Kelly, Lisa McIntyre, Rebecca Finan, Jamie Creaton, Aaron Woods, Enda Beirne, Barry Reynolds, Conor Coleman, Ciaran Helbert, Olivia McCarthy, Deirdra Hester, Elizabeth Loftus, Katie Monaghan, Niamh McCann, Maeve Cox, Niamh Jordan, Sean Burke, Mary Platt, Peter Buczach, Liam Coleman, Anna Loftus, Zoe Kelly, and Chloe Nugent.
