County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme
2017- 2022 County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme 1 County Longford Tourism Statement of Strategy and Work Programme 2017-2022 FOREWORD BY CATHAOIRLEACH AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE The County Tourism Strategy is prepared by Longford County Council working in partnership with County Longford Tourism Committee, the representative body of all tourism interests within County Longford. This Strategy sets out the overall Vision for tourism in County Longford over the next 5 years. To place Longford Tourism into context, Fáilte Ireland figures from 2013 show that while 772,000 tourists visited the Midlands Region in 2013 only 3% (22,000) visited County Longford. Therefore, the aim of this Strategy is to grow that percentage share by developing a thriving tourism sector in a planned, co-ordinated and cohesive manner as set out in this Strategy. It includes an ambitious programme of work to be undertaken within the County over that period in order to build local products and services that appeal to the marketplace. Centrally it also recognises the collective contributory role the County has to play in facilitating and supporting planned regional tourism development and complementing national tourism initiatives such as Ireland’s Ancient East. A review of the programme of work outlined and completed under previous strategies undertaken from 2010 to 2016, combined with an analysis of the current strength of the tourism sector within the County helped us to prioritise actions going forward. Since 2010, the County Longford Tourism Committee has refocused attention and energy on the potential for the tourism sector to be the key economic driver for County Longford.

Sr. Mary Kevin's Memoir of Castlecor
Feast of Our Lady of the Snows. August 5th 1987. Forty years later, our Lord still says, ‘Pray ye, therefore, the Lord of the harvest to send…..’ ‘I will stand on my watchtower And take up my post on my battlements, Watching to see what he will say to me, What answer he will make to my complaints. Then Yahweh answered and said, ‘Write the vision down, Inscribe it on tablets To be easily read, Since this vision is for its own time only: Eager for its own fulfilment, it does not deceive; If it comes slowly, wait, For it will come without fail. See how he flags, he whose soul is not at rights, But the upright man will live by his faithfulness.’ ‘The eye of the movement was Our Lady’ Frank Duff: The Legion of Mary. Stage 1. I’ve been asked to write my memories of Castlecor. This, therefore, is not a history in the strict sense - yet I intend to write the truth, as I experienced it. I had often thought that if I were asked to write this story, I’d have no choice as to how I should begin it. BORN OF A WOMAN For me, that says it: God sent His son, born of a Woman. God in His goodness sent us Ladies of Mary/Daughters of Mary and Joseph to Ireland to an enterprise which was truly born of the intercession of Our Lady. That is how I saw it; tonight- forty years later, I see it in the same light. That was my immediate, my personal experience.
