What a fantasic day for our Heritage Week event on Lough MacNean

Thanks to the local fishermen for taking us out on the day and providing laughs along the way. Thanks to Blacklion Tidy Towns for helping to organise the event - Thanks to Cavan Arts office, Cavan Heritage Office, Cavan Geopark and LAWPRO for their kind support in making this event happen.
