He and fellow members explored new avenues like agriculture workshops, cultural festivals, and sports competitions, transforming the group's vision into tangible initiatives that energised the whole community.

    Teens Talk to Andy Durkin about Macra Na Tuaithe

    Podcasters Graine and Casy with Lilian as director. Andy was a vibrant member of Louisburgh Macra Na Tuaithe, which was essentially the forerunner to the group we’ve come to know as Louisburgh Foróige. Back in the day, Andy and his friends thrived in this community-driven organisation that brought young people together for fun, togetherness, and personal development. They were all about organising local events, whether it was setting up exciting sports competitions or engaging in social nights filled with music and laughter. This camaraderie not only fostered lifelong friendships but also played a crucial role in building the vibrant spirit of Louisburgh itself. As times evolved, so did Macra Na Tuaithe into what we now recognise as Foroige, but the essence of community spirit that Andy cherished remains a cornerstone of Louisburgh Foróige.
