About Camross Community Park
Fr John Lalor Community Complex
Our Park
In April 2012, Camross Community Hall Commitee led by Rev. Fr John Lalor, received planning permission to build a multi-use general building on the Parish lands behind the Poets Cottage.
​
In 2013 the Parish was given the opportunity to purchase the lands adjacent to the existing parish lands and Fr. Lalor being the visionary that he was, completed the purchase.
​
In Oct 2021, Camross Community and Parish with the help of generous community donations and through a range of grants have completed the build phase of the new Camross Community Park.
​
The benefits to the communities of Camross is enormous. It has enhanced and rejuvenated our area and has provided a communal space that we all enjoy and be part of.
Very Rev. Fr John Lalor
