Thank you to all our volunteers who work so hard each year to make sure Kilrush is looking its best.

Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig. Bí glas inniu. Coimeád Cill Rois glan fad is atá tú ag baint taitneamh as an bparáid is siamsaíocht sa bhaile. Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Be green today. Keep Kilrush tidy today as you enjoy the parade and entertainment throughout the town.
