The Chatroom – Damien Switzer Chats John McShain
This week in The Chatroom we welcome back graphic design guru, local historian and all around good guy Mr Damien Switzer.
Damien popped in to talk about two different but interlinked topics. Firstly, the 2018 Killarney Magazine is in the shops now and Damien was the main design force behind the free premium tourist magazine, which tells tourists all about our amazing town. It details the best spots to eat, the best places to drink, all the activities that Killarney has to offer and also delves into a little bit of the history of Killarney.
Which leads to the second topic that Damien called in to chat about. Two pages of the Killarney Magazine has been dedicated to John McShain, the man who gave Killarney back to the people of Killarney, and Damien is appalled that for all the man gave us, there is not even a blade of grass named after him. Damien wants to set this right and get something done to honour the man who has given us so much.
