CASHEL TIDY TOWNS
“Congratulations to the Tidy Towns on their record 7 marks increase in points at the recent Tidy Towns awards ceremony in the Dublin which was no mean feat when the number of towns and Villages have now reached 1000 in the competition
Our village not only held its own, but increased by 7 marks from last year which is so difficult to get when near the top.
This year had 1000 entries and competition has become fierce especially in the village category.
We thank all who helped us keep on this level.
Hopefully this trend will continue for the future.
