ARDARA GETS READY TO ROCK WITH NEW TOURISM PROJECTS

The people of Ardara have found themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place but they’re delighted.

A new welcome stone has been erected in the town in what is hoped will be a number of projects aimed at promoting enterprise and tourism in the area.

Pictured presenting the new Ardara town sign on behalf of McMonagle Stone, to Stephen McCahill of the Town Traders, is Brian Forrest. Also pictured are Barney “The Rock” Shovlin who erected the sign, and Leonard Molloy, on behalf of the Ardara Focus Group.

The Focus Group are hoping that this will be the first of a series of signs, denoting townlands in Irish and English, throughout the parish.

They have applied for LEADER funding through the Donegal Local Development Company (DLDC), and hope to be able to advance the project in the coming months.
