This is the sight that has been greeting people on the roads around Ballincollig over the last few weeks as some person throws bags of household rubbish from their cars in the middle of the night.

It is a disgrace and an insult to the thousands of people in Ballincollig who take pride in their community

Shame on those responsible for this dumping

The Under 8 Camogie Team along with their trainers and parents were out in force to help Ballincollig Tidy Towns as part of the 2012 National Spring Clean last weekend.  The girls divided up into two groups one of which started at the Western side of the town and the other started at the Eastern side. The girls did a fantastic job and certainly made a big difference as can be seen by the bags they collected.  This was a great initiative by their managers and clearly shows what can be achieved when all organisation work together.  Well done Ballincollig Camogie

We need more Volunteers to assist us in projects that are ongoing or about to start.  If you have some time on your hands and would like to get involved contact any of our committee or volunteers. All we are asking is for an hour or two of your time for planting, watering plants, weeding, painting, cutting grass or helping us clean up an area in the interests of the community

We have undertaken a project on the Killumney Road at the rear of An Caislean to enhance the route for many pedistrians.  Huge numbers of pedestrians use this route on a daily basis and we identifed this area for planting.  We have already spent 3 evenings there and already the area is transformed.  We still have a lot to do but we are getting there
