Moyross is Blooming Great
Summer project 2009
 The aim is to Promote and improve the image of Moyross in a positive
way. The Flower project committees have encouraged a large number
of residents, in each of the 12 parks, to display window boxes and
hanging baskets. This will add colour to our Parks, lift the spirit
of the community and will encourage residents to plant more summer
bedding. The Flower Project took take place on Friday 1st May in
the Moyross Community Enterprise Centre. It was a sea of colour
with a variety of flowers to choose from. It was wonderful to see
so many residents making window boxes and hanging baskets. This
year residents from Moyross, Caherdavin, Shelbourne Road, Thomondgate,
Ballynanty, Parteen and Killaloe took part in the project.
The total number at the end of the day was 275 containers, of
window boxes and hanging baskets were filled. This will be an annual
event in the Moyross calendar.
A project like this does not just happen without a lot of hard work and commitment behind the scenes.
Tracy McElligott, development worker with the Moyross Residents
Forum Ltd wishes to thank all the members of the Flower project for
all their hard work, time and commitment to the project. It was
great working with you all and I am already looking forward to next
year.

in sourcing the materials.
