Michael – Thanks a million for reminding us of such an historic milestone regarding our Millstreet website. The true Pioneer of the Millstreet website is indeed Hannelie O’Connor whose courageous initiative and utter dedication were recognised in a Millstreet People of the Year Award some years past. I was honoured to have been asked by Hannelie to join the team. We were then totally blessed to have you join us, Michael adding so much by your superb technical knowledge and in being so expert in the manner by which you discover articles, features, poems etc. about Millstreet which might otherwise never come to the attention of our huge number of very loyal website visitors.
And, yes, Millstreet Museum is honoured to help fund the now essential form of communication. The handing over of the key to the newly renovated room at Carnegie Hall, Millstreet is very imminent. I’ve already researched new display units in Dublin last week. The cost of such units is significant – so, indeed, it would be greatly appreciated if people would be generous in their contributions to our annual church gate collection this coming weekend outside Millstreet Church. It is our main souce of funding for all aspects of the Museum.

Sean: Congratulations and thanks to you and the whole team for making Millstreet available to all who emigrated over the years.
God Bless you all.
Pat

Pat….Thank you very much for your much appreciated kind comment for our website team. We are delighted that our efforts in communicating the Millstreet Experience are so enthusiastically received. Every good wish to all the Family.

STV has reported that Connor Sinclair of Cullen Pipe Band has won an award at the World Championships in Glasgow.

Two million views,I can remember a time when we were excited when we reached a thousand views! With Michael’s expertise and decication, Sean’s recording and sharing every event the website has grown in popularity. I would also like to thank every person and organisation that shared their events and experiences with us over the years. My vision for the website was that it should be for all that have an interest and love of Millstreet Town, I would like to think we achieved that.

Yes, Hannelie, your vision has certainly been realised in that the Millstreet website is now an integral part of Millstreet life and has assumed a role similar to what the daily newspaper has meant to us for generations. And, yes, with such sincere commitment as yours and that of Michael plus the very valuable input of the many individuals and organisations who regularly contribute – the Millstreet website will hopefully continue to grow, develop and further improve in the years ahead.
