Summary:
The sub committee felt that the Goleen Parish Hall could be used more than it is at present and that the current committee should be encouraged to take a more active roll in promoting Community based projects. The importance of improving the aspect of Goleen village and Crookhaven village would benefit the local community by appealing to the summer tourist trade and could raise the profile of the area if success was attained within the category of the competition.
