Chairman of the Cross Committee Kit Keogh outlined the background to the project and thanked the landowners and all the community for their support in order to make this undertaking a great success. The ladies on the committee Mona Dillon, Kay Leeson and Teresa Byrne cut the ceremonial ribbon on the day and all adjourned to the Sports Complex for tea and cakes. A big thank you to all who helped out with cakes, buns and sandwiches on the day.
