Loughglynn Community Centre
The Centre is a new complex incorporating a sports hall,
a childcare centre and a number of rooms to incorporate its
use as a social centre for the people in the community. It
opened for use in September 2006 with the sports hall being
used constantly throughout the winter. The childcare centre
is open all year round as it caters for pre-school, toddler
and afterschool. The sports hall has a beautiful maple floor
and acoustagraph, which will make it a great venue for the
music and dances being held there this summer.
