The official opening marked a major milestone for the Atlantic Corridor, with Banner Plaza now providing services on what had been a 100-kilometre stretch of motorway between Limerick and Galway without a service station. Guests gathered at the new facility for the formal opening ceremony, which celebrated both the scale of the investment and the significance of the development for motorists, commuters, tourism traffic and the wider region. The occasion also highlighted the local contribution behind the project, with many Clare-based contractors, suppliers and professional firms involved in bringing Banner Plaza from planning stage to completion. Among those taking part in the official opening were Minister Darragh O’Brien TD, Plaza Group owner Pat McDonagh, invited public representatives and guests, while the event also featured live music from the Kilfenora Céilí Band, adding a strong local and celebratory flavour to the occasion. Banner Plaza has created 120 jobs and includes a large food court featuring Supermac’s, Papa John’s and Mac’s Place Deli, together with a convenience retail offering, fuel forecourt, extensive parking for cars, buses and HGVs, and eight super-fast EV charging points. Speaking at the event, Pat McDonagh said: “Today was an important day for everyone involved in this project and for the wider region.

The official opening marked a major milestone for the Atlantic Corridor, with Banner Plaza now providing services on what had been a 100-kilometre stretch of motorway between Limerick and Galway without a service station. Guests gathered at the new facility for the formal opening ceremony, which celebrated both the scale of the investment and the significance of the development for motorists, commuters, tourism traffic and the wider region. The occasion also highlighted the local contribution behind the project, with many Clare-based contractors, suppliers and professional firms involved in bringing Banner Plaza from planning stage to completion. Among those taking part in the official opening were Minister Darragh O’Brien TD, Plaza Group owner Pat McDonagh, invited public representatives and guests, while the event also featured live music from the Kilfenora Céilí Band, adding a strong local and celebratory flavour to the occasion. Banner Plaza has created 120 jobs and includes a large food court featuring Supermac’s, Papa John’s and Mac’s Place Deli, together with a convenience retail offering, fuel forecourt, extensive parking for cars, buses and HGVs, and eight super-fast EV charging points. Speaking at the event, Pat McDonagh said: “Today was an important day for everyone involved in this project and for the wider region. Banner Plaza is a major investment on the Atlantic Corridor and it was great to officially mark the opening with so many of those who helped make it happen.

The official opening marked a major milestone for the Atlantic Corridor, with Banner Plaza now providing services on what had been a 100-kilometre stretch of motorway between Limerick and Galway without a service station. Guests gathered at the new facility for the formal opening ceremony, which celebrated both the scale of the investment and the significance of the development for motorists, commuters, tourism traffic and the wider region. The occasion also highlighted the local contribution behind the project, with many Clare-based contractors, suppliers and professional firms involved in bringing Banner Plaza from planning stage to completion. Among those taking part in the official opening were Minister Darragh O’Brien TD, Plaza Group owner Pat McDonagh, invited public representatives and guests, while the event also featured live music from the Kilfenora Céilí Band, adding a strong local and celebratory flavour to the occasion. Banner Plaza has created 120 jobs and includes a large food court featuring Supermac’s, Papa John’s and Mac’s Place Deli, together with a convenience retail offering, fuel forecourt, extensive parking for cars, buses and HGVs, and eight super-fast EV charging points. Speaking at the event, Pat McDonagh said: “Today was an important day for everyone involved in this project and for the wider region.

This nostalgic event was marked with a final ceremonial call by the chairman, Dr Michael Smurfit, via manual exchange to the Taoiseach, Charles J Haughey. A cordial chat and then it was over, ending an era in the 107-year old history of the Irish telephone service. The post-mistress, Mrs Florence Bugler, was presented with a Waterford Crystal glass lamp (seen at the bottom right of the picture) in recognition of her efficiency and hard work at the exchange. A plaque was unveiled to commemorate the occasion - May 28, 1987.https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000fmLXojNzV1whttps://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000fmLXojNzV1w/fit=1000x1000/OGorman-Snn-010.jpgO'Gorman Snn 010.jpgKieran O'Gorman Hymns of praise and thanks at St Senans Church Shannon.https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000WMXtmLxHlRohttps://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000WMXtmLxHlRo/fit=1000x1000/Whitegate-Fest20140505-008.jpgWhitegate FestivalRaymond Cahill, mens runner up at the Dinny Memorial 10km run as part of the Whitegate Festival weekend. photograph by John Kelly.https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000e6GritmpP2khttps://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000e6GritmpP2k/fit=1000x1000/Roll-Of-Honor24-06-2011-009.jpglaunch of roll of honorCouncillor Pat Daly, Frank Barrett, son of Sylvester Barrett, Conor Daly, Councillor Patricia Mc Carthy and Mrs Mary Barrett, wife of Sylvester Barrett, at the unveiling of a Roll Of Honor to mark to mark the role of Clare people in political life.

COMPanionship is a new initiative by Transition Year students at St Patrick’s Comprehensive. The project will be in two phases, during phase one students will deliver Christmas decorations to local nursing homes including Carrigoran. The young students have been busily hand-crafting Christmas cards, logs, snowmen, ornaments and candles to brighten up the rooms of elderly residents in Carrigoran House as well as bringing festive cheer to large communal areas. For the second phase, the students are developing a website to help keep the elderly in touch with what’s happening locally. Included on the website are videos taken by students of their everyday activities including walks, baking, gardening, telling short stories and reciting poetry. Some of the content will feature videos and images taken by students and staff to bring residents on a virtual walk to The Point or on a tour of the new Town Park. All this local material will be brought together on the website to engender a sense of COMPanionship with our elderly neighbours and friends throughput lockdown and while they are cocooning.https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000VT7LC7oPYW0https://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000VT7LC7oPYW0/fit=1000x1000/Jaguar-Land-Rover-Dec-18-2023-278365.jpgJaguar Land Rover staff at St Patrick's Comprehensive to encourage students to consider electrifying future careers in areas such as electrical and software engineering, digital and data roles and autonomous technologies., St Patrick's Comprehensive, ShanSt Patrick’s Comprehensive student Eoin O’Brien with John Lawless, ADAS Software Engineer with Jaguar Land Rover, admiring the soon too be retired F-Type Jag which will be phased out as the company moves to all-electric vehicles by 2025.

They aim to make farming in Ireland more sustainable by creating a biodegradable and edible alternative to plastic bale net. Recycling companies are reluctant to take bale netting because it becomes contaminated over time from built up of particles. As a result, bale netting is disposed off using quicker and cheaper methods that cause serious damage to the environment. As part of their BT project, they tested the tensile strength of various sustainable materials and have come up with an alternative material that matches the tensile strength of plastic bale net but exceeds it in that it is biodegradable and edible.

Maura’s personal stake and advocacy, derived from her experiences as the mother of an extraordinary son with a disability, lend her perspective both authenticity and urgency. She stresses the imperative of maintaining momentum in the fight for the advancement of disabled people’s rights, highlighting the book’s role as a vital educational resource: “It is critical that the pressure is kept on government to progress the rights of disabled people. I am proud mother of an incredible man who has a disability and know first hand the importance of a rights based system, a fully accessible environment and inclusive attitudes. This book is extraordinarily impressive, covering over 100 years and including 100 people’s voices. I really hope that people buy the book, learn about the efforts made to bring about change and be allies. Anyone can acquire a disability. It’s benefits everybody to respect and include disabled people.” The book can be purchased online or in store Ennis Bookshop www.ennisbookshop.ie and the Banner Books www.bannerbooks.ie.

The company is collaborating with other technology partners to establish a research hub in Shannon to be known as The Future Mobility Campus Ireland (FMCI). Among these are well known brands such as Seagate, Cisco, Renovo, Red Hat and Valeo, a French car component supplier. During 2021 up to 12km of local roads around Shannon will be fitted with sensors o provide communication with autonomous cars and ‘smart’ features to warn control systems in the vehicles of possible hazards. According to JLR other infrastructure will include electric car-charging terminals, autonomous parking areas and a dedicated air corridor at Shannon Airport allowing for the deployment of drones to monitor and locate the autonomous test cars. Up to €7 million will be invested in the project, it is expected that further announcements on jobs and recruitment will be made in the near future. Commenting on the testing project John Cormican, general manager for Shannon Ireland Jaguar Land Rover, said: “This partnership with FMCI provides us with a real-world facility to trial our emerging autonomous, connected, electrified and shared technology in a strategic location. Collaborating with top-tier software companies will allow us to develop our future systems more efficiently.” Russell Vickers, chief executive of FMCI, said the Shannon Free Zone would offer a “first-class facility” for the tests. He added, “the testbed provides an opportunity to test in the real world and help answer some of the questions posed by the future of mobility in a collaborative and efficient way.” Photograph by Eugene McCafferty on 23/10/2020https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I00009.RJqV4FHO0https://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I00009.RJqV4FHO0/fit=1000x1000/Ennis-Mens-Shed-20240605-001.jpgEnnis Men's shed newly developed Horse Show Pitching ArenaKieran Martin of Shareridge Civil Engineering, tries his hand at horse show throwing, coached by Co Corry, Garden Co-ordinator Ennis Men's Shed as well as spectators David Hutchinson and James Nagle in their newly developed Horse Show Pitching Arena at their premises on the Quin Road.

The official opening marked a major milestone for the Atlantic Corridor, with Banner Plaza now providing services on what had been a 100-kilometre stretch of motorway between Limerick and Galway without a service station. Guests gathered at the new facility for the formal opening ceremony, which celebrated both the scale of the investment and the significance of the development for motorists, commuters, tourism traffic and the wider region. The occasion also highlighted the local contribution behind the project, with many Clare-based contractors, suppliers and professional firms involved in bringing Banner Plaza from planning stage to completion. Among those taking part in the official opening were Minister Darragh O’Brien TD, Plaza Group owner Pat McDonagh, invited public representatives and guests, while the event also featured live music from the Kilfenora Céilí Band, adding a strong local and celebratory flavour to the occasion. Banner Plaza has created 120 jobs and includes a large food court featuring Supermac’s, Papa John’s and Mac’s Place Deli, together with a convenience retail offering, fuel forecourt, extensive parking for cars, buses and HGVs, and eight super-fast EV charging points.

A spokesperson for the club commented, “We have worked very hard to keep this club running over the years, especially in the last 12 months without being able to do any fundraising and this is again adding further to our costs. St Senan’s is a small local club and these unnecessary and unforeseen costs can really impact us so if anyone has any information about this, please contact the Gardaí.” Photograph by Eugene McCafferty on 13/01/2021https://photos.clarechampion.ie/image/I0000AWuCoEh0tZYhttps://photos.clarechampion.ie/img-get2/I0000AWuCoEh0tZY/fit=1000x1000/Rina-O-Brien016.jpgRyna O' Brien from Cappa.

Shannon artist Dominic McNamara, has found 2020 extremely difficult financially. His last public exhibition was back in February in the People's Museum of Limerick with no opportunity to showcase his work since. One of his paintings, ‘A Silent Tear’, strikes a very poignant chord and has attracted much positive comment from passers bye while on display in SkyCourt. According to Dominic it’s a personal tribute to the bravery and selflessness of frontline health workers and “it gives an idea of how I thought they might feel as they go about their work”. He added, “People were dying from this pandemic all around them, their own colleagues were getting sick from the virus and I would imagine this was one of the toughest jobs possible, given that so many people could be so sick at any one time.” Normally this is a time of year when galleries and other facilities play host to many art exhibition, but this is no normal year. Still, Dominic remains hopeful that the present lockdown will have a real impact on containing the virus thus allowing for some chance to make a few sales before Christmas. Dominic McNamara’s work is available through a number of websites including New Irish Art, Inis Artists and his own Facebook page.

The cut was of Red Clover variety which is high in feed value, protein and minerals and while it is only suitable for silage making and not for grazing, it can be harvested up to four times a year. The crop, which yields approximately twenty five bales per acre per year, gets no artificial fertiliser but has slurry spread on it after each cut to drive it.

Maura’s personal stake and advocacy, derived from her experiences as the mother of an extraordinary son with a disability, lend her perspective both authenticity and urgency. She stresses the imperative of maintaining momentum in the fight for the advancement of disabled people’s rights, highlighting the book’s role as a vital educational resource: “It is critical that the pressure is kept on government to progress the rights of disabled people. I am proud mother of an incredible man who has a disability and know first hand the importance of a rights based system, a fully accessible environment and inclusive attitudes. This book is extraordinarily impressive, covering over 100 years and including 100 people’s voices. I really hope that people buy the book, learn about the efforts made to bring about change and be allies. Anyone can acquire a disability.
