Two new members to Join McShain Memorial Committee
Two new members will be appointed to the McShain Memorial Committee at Friday's Killarney Municipal District meeting.
The committee is currently working to determine the most suitable way to honour the memory of John McShain, the generous benefactor who donated Killarney House and Gardens, Innisfallen Island, Ross Castle, and 8,000 acres of surrounding land to the State.
It is anticipated that the memorial will take the form of a statue, plaque, or artwork and will likely be located near Killarney House and Gardens, where the McShain family once resided.
The current members of the McShain Memorial Committee include Cllr Niall Kelleher, Cllr Marie Moloney, Johnny McGuire (Joint President of Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce), Eamonn Meskell and Pat Dawson (National Parks and Wildlife Service officials), John C O'Shea, Damien Switzer, and Mary G O'Sullivan.
At Friday's inaugural meeting of the newly elected council, two members will be co-opted onto the McShain Memorial Committee to help guide the memorial project forward.
