Our thanks to the LEADER programme and the SKDP who have allocated a grant of €26,261 to Spa GAA club towards the installation of our new walking track.

Plans for a walking path inside the perimeter of the property have been ongoing since we signed up for the Ireland Lights Up winter walking initiative in early 2019. Work on the track, which is looped path approximately 1km long, has begun and is hoped to be completed in the coming weeks.  

For the past 30 years LEADER funding has helped rural communities across the EU through community-led local development. We are immensely grateful to both LEADER and the local South Kerry Development Partnership for this grant towards the completion of the track.

We are looking forward to welcoming the local community to the club grounds to enjoy the benefits of the completed walking track.

Special mention of appreciation to the Spa field committee and our CE Scheme workers who have done tremendous work all along in maintaining the property and working in all weathers to keep our fields and grounds in such good condition.
