As the long weekend comes to an end our volunteers can hopefully take a little time for themselves and their families. It was a fairly busy weekend for us with a total of 39 jobs completed. The Limerick city marathon on Sunday saw most of the city closed off but even so we had no problems getting our runs done. Thanks to all our volunteers and supporters.
