💚🤍 A HUGE THANK YOU TO EDEL CONCANNON & DEREK SAVAGE! 🤍💚

We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to Edel Concannon and Derek Savage for their fantastic support of Cortoon Lavally Community Park and for the continued contribution they make to our club today.

Having given so many fantastic years to Cortoon Shamrocks on the football field, their commitment to the club hasn’t stopped there. Their ongoing support, generosity and dedication are a wonderful example of what it means to be part of our club and community. 💚

A club is built on more than what happens between the white lines. It’s built on the people who continue to stand behind it, give back and help ensure a bright future for the next generation. Edel and Derek are a perfect example of this, and their support is truly valued and appreciated by everyone at Cortoon Shamrocks.

From all of us, thank you both for everything you have done and continue to do for our club and Cortoon Lavally Community Park. Your influence and support make a real difference, and we are incredibly grateful to have you as part of our Shamrocks family. 👏💚🤍

🎉 A Major Milestone for Cortoon Lavally Community Park! 🎉

We are delighted to announce that the final payment for the Community Park land has been made this week! 🥳

Thanks to our community, we have been able to meet this financial commitment as a direct result of the incredible generosity, support and hard work of so many people. From fundraising events and sponsorship to donations and volunteering, every contribution played a part in making this day possible.

We would also like to acknowledge the landowner for facilitating the early transfer of the land in April, which allowed us to progress grant applications while the purchase was being finalised.

This achievement demonstrates what can be accomplished when a community comes together with a shared vision.

What was once an idea is now a lasting asset for current and future generations to enjoy. 🌳💚

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. We look forward to the next chapter as we continue working towards bringing Cortoon Lavally Community Park to life!

The importance of our development — in the words of Patricia Boyle, Principal of Brownsgrove National School 💚
Having the support of our local school means so much. Our current facilities need development to meet the needs of our children and our community — now and for the future.
Thank you to Patricia for this lovely message of support.
Please watch, like & share 🙏

There’s something special about hearing the stories of those who came before us.

In this short video, Pa Quinn, Brian Roche and Stan Matthews look back on the past — sharing memories, reflecting on how our community has changed, and remembering the people and moments that helped shape it.
But this isn’t just about looking back. It’s also about looking forward.
Their hope is for a bright future for our community — one where the next generations have the same sense of belonging, pride and connection, and where the stories, traditions and values that matter most are carried forward.
🎥 Take a few minutes to listen, remember, and reflect.
Because our past tells our story — and together, we can help shape what comes next. ❤️

🏡 BECOME A COMRADE FOR OUR COMMUNITY 💚

We have a dream for our community — a place where everyone can come together, connect, play, walk, socialise and create memories for years to come.

We are working towards developing a Community Hub that will include:

⚽ An AstroTurf for sport and activities
🛝 A fantastic playground for our children
🚶‍♀️ A walking track for all ages and abilities
🤝 Spaces for our community to meet, connect and celebrate
🎉 Areas for events, activities and community initiatives
…and so much more!

This isn’t just about creating facilities. It’s about creating a place where our whole community belongs. A place where children can play, families can spend time together, older generations can stay active and everyone has the opportunity to connect.

But to turn this vision into reality, we need your help. ❤️

We are asking individuals, families, local businesses and organisations to consider supporting our Community Development Initiative through monthly or yearly sponsorship.

Every contribution, big or small, brings us one step closer to achieving this huge milestone for our community.

🙏 We need everyone’s help to make this happen.

If you believe in our vision and want to be part of creating something that will benefit our community for generations to come, please visit our iDonate page today and become part of the journey.

🔗 Donate. Sponsor. Share. Get involved.

Together, we can turn our dreams into reality. 💚

Our community. Our future. Our place.

This is what happens when a community comes together to make dreams a reality 💚

Ideas turn into plans.
Plans turn into teamwork.
And teamwork turns into something our kids, our neighbours, and our future selves will be proud of.

The other night reminded us of that again. When we show up, listen, support each other, and believe in the same vision, amazing things start to happen.

A dream on paper becomes a path in the park.
A “someday” becomes “we’re doing this.”
Because this isn’t just about a project. It’s about us.

Thank you to everyone who’s giving their time, energy, and belief. The best is still ahead.

What a night! 👏

Thank you to everyone who came to last night’s community meeting about the Cortoon Lavally Community Park

It was an incredibly informative evening where we shared the progress to date on the park. Huge credit to the Committee for an outstanding presentation - the vision, the plans, and the work happening behind the scenes really showed what we can achieve together for our community.

We were also joined by a few esteemed guests who gave us their full support and pledged to help however they can to make this project a reality in the very near future. That encouragement means the world to us.

A massive thank you to everyone in the community who attended, asked questions, and sent in such positive feedback already. Your support is what’s driving this forward.

This park is for all of us - walking track, playground, biodiversity garden, all-weather astro and more to come. Let’s keep the momentum going! 💚
