Thomastown Community River Trust (TCRT) will this month present ‘Open Waters: Our River, Our Town’. This is a series of educational and community-focussed activities to celebrate World Rivers Day 2017.
The highlight of Open Waters will be the exclusive Irish premiere of the international environmental film, ‘River Blue’. This is billed as ‘a groundbreaking documentary that examines the destruction of our rivers, its effect on humanity, and the solutions that inspire hope for a sustainable future.’
The film will be shown in Thomastown Concert Hall on Marshes Street at 8 p.m. on Thursday September 21. Admission will be free, with donations to Thomastown Community River Trust being welcomed.
On Saturday September 23, you can join in a celebration of another successful summer season at the Thomastown Weir Pool.
Activities there will begin at 10 a.m., and there will be a celebratory swim from 1 p.m.
