THE Urris Community
Development group has recently completed stage two
of their ‘Welcome to Urris’ project and have erected
a second bi-lingual welcome rock at Mamore Gap.
The group again called on the services of local
volunteer stone masons, Richie Dick, Charlie Hagan,
Neil Jimmy Sean and labourers Paul Kelly and John
Joe Doherty with a little help from committee
members. Thomas McConway also gave his digger and
his time freely. The new rock was also once again
engraved free of charge by Devlin Memorials,
Bridgend. |

Chairperson Paul
McLaughlin reiterated the development group's
immense gratitude to the volunteers. "The committee
would like to thank all those who have volunteered
their services, time and effort, it is greatly
appreciated. We are having a summer break and will
be back in the late autumn refreshed with more
projects to work on. Anyone who has any ideas can
contact any committee member."
The Urris Community Development group continues to
build on the work it has done so far. Meanwhile,
Inishowen TDs Padraig MacLochlainn and Charlie
McConalogue, and county councillors, John Ryan and
Rena Donaghey, have also been credited with helping
to get part-funding for the association for a second
year. The group and volunteers were out in force
again last Saturday in their latest litter clean-up. |
