Our Popular Playground Damaged at Millstreet Town Park

Millstreet Town Park Committee has just shared the following:

“We are extremely disappointed and frustrated to see that vandalism has once again occurred in our local playground.

Over the past few days, two large holes have been deliberately dug into the playground surface, on two separate occasions. This was not accidental damage but an intentional act of vandalism.

Not only has this caused significant damage to a valued community facility, but it has also created a serious safety hazard for the many children and families who use the playground every day.

Our playground is a shared community space that is enjoyed by local families, visitors and children of all ages. It is deeply disappointing that the actions of a small number of individuals can have such a negative impact on a facility that exists for everyone to enjoy.

We would ask all members of the community to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity. Repairing this damage will come at a cost and takes valuable time and resources away from improving and maintaining the playground for everyone.”

Great Turnout for Blackwater Valley Vintage Group Vintage/Classic Summer Car Run for Bumbleance Childrens Ambulance Service

The summer weather arrived in style for the Blackwater Valley Vintage Group Summer Car Run, held on last Saturday evening June 13th, with an impressive 80 cars signing on for the event in aid of the BUMBLEance Children’s Ambulance Service
The event commenced at Cullen Community Centre, where the BUMBLEance vehicle was on display for participants and spectators alike.
The convoy departed Cullen shortly after 5:30pm and followed a scenic route through Knocknagree, Ballydesmond, the Sugan Road, Knocknaclarrig, Knocknagoshel and Lyreacrompane before descending through some spectacular countryside scenery to the finish at O’Riada’s Bar and Restaurant near Ballymacelligott.
The fine summer evening provided ideal conditions, allowing participants to fully appreciate the stunning views along the route.
On arrival at the finish, refreshments were served and musical entertainment was provided by The Sitting Room Band, also appearing on the night were Sheila Fitzgerald, Tim Joe & Anne O’Riordan Sheila Heery & Conor Brosnan, George F. Langan,Barry O’Halloran and all the other singers on the night who all gave there talents Free of Charge.

The BUMBLEance Children’s Ambulance Service vehicle was once again on display at O’Riada’s, giving attendees an opportunity to view this impressive vehicle and gain a greater appreciation of the invaluable service provided by this voluntary organisation to seriously ill children and their families.
Following the event, a fantastic total of €3,258.50 has been raised so far before expenses. This outstanding result is a testament to the generosity of everyone who supported the event, and the organisers are sincerely grateful for that support.
An open draw for a shield sponsored by Cork Music Station was held before the start of the run in Cullen. The winner was Alfie West with his 1990 BMW E30.
Blackwater Valley Vintage Group and event organiser Willie Fitzgerald would like to thank everyone who attended and supported the event. Special thanks are extended to all those who helped make the evening such a success, including the marshals, bike marshals, registration team, route layout and arrowing crew, coordination of parking of vehicles and the hardworking catering team in Cullen.

The group would also like to acknowledge the support of An Garda Síochána, Cullen Community Centre, Sheila Fitzgerald and John Tarrant of The Corkman, the management and staff of O’Riada’s for their excellent food and hospitality, photographers, media personnel,

Millstreet Community School Quid Games Raises €72,000 for Community Pitch Redevelopment

Millstreet Community School Quid Games Raises €72,000 for Community Pitch Redevelopment
Millstreet Community School is delighted to announce that our recent Quid Games fundraising event has generated a remarkable net total of €72,000 towards our proposed pitch redevelopment project.
This outstanding achievement would not have been possible without the tremendous support received from across the local community. We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who participated, sponsored, volunteered, attended, promoted the event or contributed in any way.
We are particularly grateful to our main sponsor, Coleman’s Millstreet, and to our co-sponsors Donagh Hickey Motors, ALPS Alpine and Green Glens Arena for their generous support.
As the State Examinations and the current School Year draw to a close, we are now progressing to the grant application stage of the project. The success of Quid Games has provided a significant boost to our fundraising efforts and demonstrates the strong community support that exists for the development.
The vision remains clear: to deliver top-class sports and recreational facilities that will benefit not only the students of Millstreet Community School but also local clubs, organisations and community groups for generations to come.  The massive €600,000 upgrade of our Sports Hall facilities is currently underway, with funding from the Department of Education and Cork County Council.
On behalf of the Board of Management and the entire school community, thank you for helping us take another major step towards making this project a reality.

Wonderfully New Major Roller Mower for Millstreet Town Park

Daniel O’Keeffe of Colemans, Millstreet (2nd from left) is  pictured with Millstreet Town Park Committee members Geraldine O’Leary, Denis Twomey, Denis Hickey and Patrick Buicke.

A new Major Roller Mower has recently been purchased by Millstreet Town Park Committee. This important addition to the Park’s equipment was made possible through funding received from a Cork County Council amenity grant together with the continued support of our fantastic Local Lotto.

The new roller mower will play a vital role in the upkeep and presentation of the Park, helping to maintain the grass areas to a high standard for all who use and enjoy the facility throughout the year. The investment will greatly assist in carrying out maintenance work more efficiently, while also enhancing the overall appearance and usability of the Park for walkers, families, sporting activities and community events.Millstreet Town Park continues to be a valued community amenity enjoyed by people of all ages….and purchases such as this ensure the Park can continue to be maintained and developed for future generations.We extend our sincere thanks to Cork County Council for their support through the amenity grant scheme….and to everyone who supports our Local Lotto on an ongoing basis. Your support makes projects and improvements like this possible and is greatly appreciated by the entire community.  (We thank Denis Hickey for this important Report – Tap on the images to enlarge….S.R.)
