Forás An Súgán


An seachtain seo chaite, bhí an chéad cruinniú Zoom againn leis an foireann Mirador Media Ltd. Tá an conradh faighte ag Mirador chun an staidéar féidearthachta a dhéanamh ar son ‘An Súgán’, an iarsmalann atá molta den Gailge agus Athbheocháin na Gaeilge. Tá an cistiú le haghaidh an staidéar seo chuirtear ar fáil trí Clár LEADER Mhúscrai. Tá an foireann Mirador tar éis measúnú tosaigh den foirgnimh a críochnú.

D’oibrigh Mirador ar suíomhanna turasóireachta ar fud na tíre. Cúpla samplaí áitiúil ná Lifetime Labs san Old Cork Waterworks, Ionad Oidhreachta an Chóibh (Cobh Heritage Centre), agus Ionad Turasóireachta Inis Pic (Spike Island Visitor Centre). Táimíd an-bhuíoch go bhfuil an cistiú againn chun comhlacht den scoth a mealladh don tionscadal seo.

Tógfaidh an staidéar é féin thart ar 10 seachtain, agus féachfaidh sé ar gach taobh den tionscadal chun a féiderathacht a dhéanamh amach, go háirithe ar an méid turasóirí a féidir leis mealladh don ceantar, a h-áit sa phobal, roghanna don foirgnimh, conas a féidir leis oibriú le áiseanna turasóireachta eile sa ceantar, a tábhacht ar leibhéal náisiúnta agus go h-idirnáisiúnta, agus réimse ábhair eile. Beidh an staidéar mar cabhair tábhachtach dúinn I rith an tionscadal seo.

I rith an staidéar, beidh teagmháil le daoine sa phobal chun eolas agus tuaraimí a fháil.

Tógfaidh https://ballingearyhs.com/an-sugan/  thú díreach go dtí ábhar ‘An Súgán’ ar suíomh idirlín an gCumann Staire. Is féidir leat an rogha ‘Teangmháil’ a úsáid chun aon smaointí nó moltaí a seoladh don foireann An Súgán.

An Súgán Progress


Last week we held our first Zoom meeting with the team at Mirador Media Ltd . Mirador have been awarded the contract to carry out the feasibility study for “An Súgán”, the proposed museum of the Gaelic Revival and Irish language in Béal Átha’n Ghaorthaidh. Funding for the feasibility study has been provided through Clár LEADER Mhúscrai. The Mirador team have already carried out an initial assessment of the building.
Mirador has been responsible for many high-profile visitor attractions around Ireland, including, locally: Lifetime Labs in the Old Cork Waterworks; Cobh Heritage Centre; and the Spike Island visitor centre. We are very fortunate to have secured funding to attract such a high-quality partner for the Feasibility Study.
The study itself will last approximately 10 weeks and will look at all aspects of the project to determine its viability: its potential to attract cultural tourism; its place in our community; options for the building; how it can fit with other tourist resources and initiatives in the Mhúscraí area; its significance nationally and internationally, and many other topics. When completed, the final study report will be a valuable guide to moving forward with this project.
During the course of the study, members of the community will be contacted for information and views.
https://ballingearyhs.com/an-sugan/ will take you directly to the “An Súgán” material on the Cumann Staire website. You can use the “Contact” to send any comments, thoughts or suggestions to the An Súgán team.

The Rain gauge

In the last Béal  Átha’n Ghaorthaidh Abú we presented some historical
rainfall data from 1948 until 2017. These data were measured each day at
Scoil Mhuire and nowadays can be sent by text message to Met Eireann.
Those measurements ceased in May of this year, and Met Eireann would
like them to restart. As residents know, the rainfall in the catchment
is very variable and these daily measurements are invaluable to Met
Eireann and to the community. (Think flooding and slipping bogs
associated with windfarms).

The Met Eireann representative is happy that the rain gauge (which is
really a container, about the size of a large coke bottle, buried in the
ground with a funnel attached,) be moved by up to 1 mile from the
current location at Scoil Mhuire if necessary. They do not favour public
spaces for the gauge because of concerns about interference.

Coiste Forbartha is looking for a household near the village who would
be prepared to accommodate the gauge in an open space (garden) and take
the daily measurements. (A small fee is payable by Met Eireann). For
families with children in school, this is a great opportunity to make
some “real science” measurements and will encourage an interest in
climate change and environmental issues.

An initial commitment of one or two years would be required, after
which time the gauge could be moved on to someone else if necessary.
