Sonia Celebrates Millstreet Tidy Towns National Awards Success
On our return journey from the All-Ireland Tidy Towns Awards event at the magnificent Helix Theatre in Dublin today we happened to meet in the afternoon at the Avoca Store & Cafés near the Naas Road in Rathcoole, Co. Dublin, Sonia O’Sullivan (world-famous athlete and sports ambassador supreme originally from Cobh) who was delighted to hear of the success of Cobh and Millstreet at the prestigious annual awards.

(S.R.)Representing Millstreet Tidy Towns Association at today’s national awards in the Helix Theatre, Dublin – From left: Denis Hickey, Derry Sheehan (Chairman, Millstreet T.T.A.) and Noreen Dennehy. My role was to record the wonderfully uplifting event at which Millstreet received a further Bronze medal, gained one extra mark which is now at 296 (20 marks behind Moynalty, Co. Meath which is Ireland’s Tidiest Town 2013). We also got to meet with members of Killarney T.T.A. (Winner) and we note that we are first in our category in Cork (North).
We now share a selection of 80 further images outlining our car journey from Millstreet this morning to Dublin. We attempt to provide a background insight into the impressive annual event – we note RTÉ’s Mary Kennedy doing the “Nationwide” links, Michael Ryan as MC, Minister Phil Hogan and Supervalu Representatives on stage, the refreshments provided for all who travelled from the 26 counties, the excitement for the winners and the presence of lots of media. My sincere thanks to Millstreet Tidy Towns, to Mary Kelleher and to Derry Sheehan for affording us the opportunity to record and to share such a magnificent occasion. Every success in the future to our superbly dedicated Millstreet Tidy Towns Association.
