5K Run or Walk in aid of Moygownagh Community Games on Sunday
5th October @ 4pm, starting from Community Centre. This is a necessary fundraiser to continue
promoting Community Games. The overall
investment of time, energy etc., into our local organisation has paid huge
dividends with our athletes and performers competing in the highest level at
National Finals this year. All help and
support on the day would be greatly appreciated. Refreshments served after. Contact Karen for more details.
Photograph Exhibition
An exhibition of
photographs is currently on display in Moygownagh community centre. The photos
were taken by Nuala McHale during her volunteer placement in Guatemala this
summer. Nuala would like to thank everyone in Moygownagh and surrounding areas
who contributed to her fundraising efforts.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
What is WEEE?
WEEE, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment is anything that has a
plug or a battery and is at the end of its useful life. In the house, old and broken fridges and
washing machines are examples but don’t forget the little guys! Remote
controls, batteries, electric toothbrushes, electronic toys even your old
bicycle lamps can also be recycled. You
would be surprised what items you have lying around the house that count as
WEEE when they are no longer able to be used.
WEEE Ireland provide free collections in centralised locations
throughout Mayo whereby the public can drop off items for recycling. Ballina collection point is at Humbert
street car park (beside Dunnes Stores) on Sat 27th September from
10am to 4pm.
