The Community Outreach presents Peter Harper from the Lough Partnership, chief environmental officer, to speak about the work in and around Lough Neagh. He will mainly focus on the many species in the Lough, their problems and survival. This should be of great interest to all of us since we depend on this large body of water, and are concerned about its present condition. There will be time for questions and hopefully a lively discussion. Please pass the word around that everyone is welcome. The date is May 20th at the Jethro Center at 7:30pm. Light refreshments are served afterwards
