Equinox presentation planned

Presentations of appreciation to Sir Anthony and Lady O'Reilly and the Thompson family for their support of the Dun Ailinne celebrations last year are being planned by Kilcullen Community Action.

The organisation's recent meeting heard that the equinox around March 21 might be a good time to mark that appreciation. It would be the second time that the unique sunrise interaction with the javelin sculpture during the spring equinox might be observed, weather permitting.

Suggestions that the presentations include copies of the special book produced for the key people involved in the Dun Ailinne excavations and subsequent investigation, as well as DVDs of the music composed by Liam O'Flynne for the summer dedication of the Dun Ailinne Interpretive Park, sponsored by the O'Reillys, were agreed at the meeting.
