Schools and community development organisations from all over county Roscommon are getting into ‘Spring Clean’ mode this week in preparation for the anti-litter initiative which runs throughout April and May. Every group which registers for National Spring Clean 2006 is issued with a free clean-up kit, which contains information, posters, colour coded refuse sacks, protective gloves and tabards to keep participants clean. The campaign, which aims to make Ireland a cleaner place to live, is organised by An Taisce, funded by the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government and is sponsored by Coca-Cola Bottlers Ireland and the Wrigley Company. Organisations in Roscommon that have registered National Spring Clean events for over the course of the next month include: Plunkett Avenue Residents in Boyle, Cloontuskert NS, Lisacul Tidy Towns, Scoil Bhríde in Fourmilehouse, Frenchpark Tidy Towns, Crossna Community Co-op, Cornafulla NS, Scoil Mhuire in Drumboylan, Irish Girl Guides, Dangan NS, St. Joseph’s Primary School, Summerhill, Lecarrow Tidy Towns, St. Bride’s NS, Ballintubber, Tisrara NS, Ballinaheglish Community Development, Keadue Development Association, Lisacul Tidy Towns, Curraghboy Tidy Towns, Rooskey Residents Association, Attyrory NS, Ballintleva NS, Cloonfad NS, Enfield NS, Rahara NS, St. Mary’s NS, Roscommon, Gaelscoil de hÍde, Cnoc na Cruibe, Ros Comáin, St. Joseph’s BNS, Killina NS, Kilbegnet Development Association, Rahara NS, St. Michael’s and St. Patrick’s NS, Cootehall, Tarmon NS, Cloonakilla NS and Gorthaganny Community Development.
