He was accompanied by Helen Barry from Kerry County Council as well as members of his staff from New York.

During the visit, Tricel's efforts to prioritise sustainability in the construction industry were on display to the visiting group.
Aside from implementing the largest solar and heat pump combi system in Ireland, Tricel has also committed to both eliminating single-cup usage through the Killarney Coffee Cup initiative and creating biodiversity with its 140m wildflower garden.

The company's CEO, Michael Stack, and Director, Con Stack, gave Senator Kavanagh a tour of its manufacturing facility, which includes a state-of-the-art SMC manufacturing facility.

During his time in Killarney, Senator Kavanagh admired the warm hospitality and the strong sense of community that characterises the town. He emphasised the importance of strengthening ties between New York and Killarney, highlighting the potential for mutually beneficial economic partnerships.

"I am deeply impressed by the beauty and vitality of Killarney and the warm welcome extended to me during my Tricel visit. There are ample opportunities for collaboration and growth between our communities. I look forward to exploring these potential partnerships and finding ways to strengthen our international ties," said Senator Kavanagh.

The Dóchas Drama Group will run a series of short plays at the Muckross Schoolhouse from December 5 to 7.

The group’s annual performance has been switched to the Muckross venue as its traditional base – the ballroom in the Killarney Avenue Hotel is being refurbished.

“If you are fed up with the incessant rain and constant bad news. Do you need a break? Are tired of listening to advice about your Christmas cake recipe? There is a perfect solution,” said the group’s Liz Ryan.

“We will present six short plays and some of the questions you may ask yourself are: 

“Why is Jane suddenly so honest?

“What did happen on December 9. Will Tiffany be promoted? Will Mags eventually find love?

“Can lost love be re-kindled? What do grandparents get up to when they’re babysitting?

For answers to these questions and more, come along to Muckross Schoolhouse on December 5, 6 and 7.”
