CONGRATULATIONS

Congratulations to the Navan and District Historical Society, on the launch of their new website Navan history.ie.

The launch took place in Navan Library on Thursday 16th February. The launch was conducted by the Mayor of Navan CLLR Anton McCabe.

The society was founded in 2007 and their main aim is to foster an interest in the local history of the area. They published their first journal  ( Navan it's People and it's Past,  VOLUME1 ) just before Christmas and are delighted to say that it completely sold out within a few weeks. They are running a limited reprint of the journal and hope to have copies in the shops by the end of March.

As part of the Shamrock Festival Vincent Mulvany will lead an historical walking tour of Navan starting at 10am from the CYWS Hall Fairgreen on St Patrick's Day. Vincent will also have his unique series of photographs of the Old St. Pats/ St. Finian's Study Hall on display in the CYWS Hall.
