Mums’ word nets garden two prizes
Trá an Oileán just outside Schull won a Community Tourism award in the Pride of Place All Island competition at the weekend — on top of scooping the Best Social Inclusion Project in the 2011 Muintir na Tíre Pride in Our Community Awards last week.
The three-quarter acre spread of undulating green grass and carefully chosen coastal sea grasses with comfy benches cost €70,000, about €30,000 of which had to be raised by local volunteers.
