☀️ Fitz’s Field is looking fantastic in the sunshine! 🌞
The pitches, walkways and surroundings are looking better than ever, and it’s a great reminder of what an incredible community facility we have here in Kilconly.

But we’re not finished yet…

Work continues on our new Recreation Centre, and with your support we can bring this exciting project across the finish line.

🧱𝐁𝐮𝐲 𝐚 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤 🧱🔗https://www.idonate.ie/forms/KCRGBuyaBrick

Please support this fundraiser and help to finish what we’ve started and make Fitz’s Field the community hub we need, as lots of the community use these facilities weekly and this recreation centre is the missing piece.

These exciting new facilities are free for the community to enjoy and are suitable for all ages. Whether you’re challenging friends to a round of mini golf or testing your skills on the All Sport tables, there’s plenty of fun waiting for everyone.

These additions are another step in our vision of creating a vibrant, inclusive recreational space for the entire community. They have only been made possible through the incredible support of our volunteers, sponsors, funders and everyone who has backed our Buy a Brick Campaign.

Every brick purchased helps us continue developing Fitz’s Field into a place where families, children and people of all ages can come together to play, exercise and connect.
