M.C for the event was Andrew Walsh who welcomed everyone, including the prize winners, their supporters and credit union representatives, Brendan Wright and Brian King whom he thanked for helping sponsoring the event and organsing the exhibition that is currently on display in the library.

The Competition Launch Took Place In Glebe Park
All the winning photos in addition to many of the excellent photos that were submitted but which did not receive a prize are currently on display in the library. In addition the exhibition has a strong focus on St Cronan and is certainly worth a visit.
