    Speaking with Monica from the Paul Partnership she tells me that this year will be a much bigger event with loads more dance and music with the Shannon Bhangra dancers among those attending. Its a great event for some nice photos!

    Get involved. Come to the 2010 Limerick City Community & Voluntary Fair which will be held at Limerick City Hall overlooking the Shannon, on Sunday 12th September 2010 starting at 1pm.
    While continuing to celebrate and promote Active Citizenship, Volunteerism and the ongoing partnership between service providers, community and voluntary groups, cultural and sporting organizations, this year a special emphasis will be placed on ‘Integrating Limerick: One Community Many Voices’.
    This will be a great opportunity to experience the changing face of Limerick, support Regeneration, welcome New Communities and let the people of Limerick know what is on offer in our City. The Fair will provide an occasion to celebrate the people of Limerick as One Community with Many Voices through music, dance, fun and great food.
    Opportunities for participation and involvement in the community will be on offer. If your club, group or organisation is looking for participants or volunteers, or you as an individual want to get involved in something new, this is the place to be.
    The Fair will be a celebration of people helping people and neighbour helping neighbor. Studies have shown there is a huge health benefit to volunteering. Take the time to see what you have to contribute, get involved and make a difference in your community.
    Exhibition Stands will be provided for groups and organizations to showcase their services, social histories, demonstrate their achievements and welcome new members. If you would like to reserve a stand please fill in a Stand Reservation Form and return it to mobriensmith@paulpartnership.ie as soon as possible. Stands are limited to sixty five this year. It will be a case of first come first served.
    If there is anyone in your organisation who would like to perform, entertain or display their skills, please fill in the Performance Registration Form. Individuals can also register. You can also just turn up, look around, enjoy the entertainment, meet people and sample the delights of our BBQ which will celebrate the diversity in cuisine that is now part of Limerick.
    The Fair promises to be a great day for all and will include activities for children and adults, ‘Limerick Talent’ and international entertainment, band performances, dancers, Wii Computerised Team Sports Programme for all to participate in, target penalty shoot out, kick boxing, face painting, martial arts display. The entertainment section of the day continues to grow.
    An added attraction will be an Intercultural BBQ Cook-Off Competition. Teams are already being put together from Southill Community, Queen of Peace Community, The Limerick Youth Service, St Mary’s Community, St Munchin’s Community Killeely and St Munchin’s Community Ballynanty, Our Lady of Lourdes Community and Moyross Community.
    A number of teams from the New Communities of Limerick have also agreed to participate. Food and supplies will be provided to each team. All teams must fill in the Intercultural BBQ Registration Form.
    Let’s make this a day to remember. Sunshine is on order. Stands, food, entertainment and sporting activities will be provided FREE OF CHARGE. Get involved. Give your support to Limerick Regeneration and Integrating Limerick: One Community Many Voices.
    The Limerick City Community Forum Fair is supported by the Regeneration Agency, Limerick City and County Integration, PAULPartnership, Limerick Volunteer Centre, Limerick Youth Service, Limerick Sports Partnership and Doras Luimni.
