COMMUNITY ALERT: - Meeting will be held in Streete Parish Park on Wednesday October 3rd at 8.30 pm. Garda representatives from Mullingar and Delvin regional division will attend. This is a very important meeting. Gardaí warn of the likely increase in house break-ins and farm yard theft at this time of year because of the cover of darkness as the light fades by, our evenings becoming shorter. The Gardaí ask that we become active and set up a community alert group to inform them of any suspicious activities in our community, they remind us of the importance of being vigilant at all times. All welcome.
