Monks take rap for garden

BY ROSS RYAN

It was party time in Delmege Park last Sunday for the opening of the Monks garden. Keith Earls and singer Leanne Moore were there to cut the ribbon infront of a large crowd of onlookers . The Monks have been working hard the last year to turn the remains of three houses into a beautiful garden full of blackcurrants, gooseberry bushes and a small pond.




Keith spoke to the Limerick Leader about the community,

"A lot of lads in the community built it so that makes it more special. It's a Fabulous job, they should be proud of themselves."

Later in the afternoon there was a rap contest entitled 'Stars In The Hood', where youths from all over the city took part. Stars included Jay Red from Killeely and Asa, 'A.D.D.' Fitzpatrick from Delmege Park, who is featured in this month's Moywrites magazine.
