The purpose of this website is to provide a communication link between  the residents of Skerries. The SCA is the umbrella organisation for many of the town's hard working groups,including the Board of Management of Skerries Community Centre, Skerries Tidy Towns Committee,  Skerries Town Twinning Association, Skerries Cycling Initiative, Skerrries Soundwaves Festival, Skerries RAS endstage Committee, Crann Padraig, Sustainable Skerries and Little Theatre Funding Committee.

Over the past year Skerries Tidy Towns Committee have been working with the Skerries Historical Society and Fingal County Council naming committee to re-instate missing signage from some areas and name some of the laneways in the town. 

In consultation with Skerries Historical Society the town was surveyed and following research by the Historical Society appropriate names for laneways which were either unnamed or had a number of different names was decided upon. 

These names then went to the Fingal County Council naming committee who agreed some and questioned others.

The following is the list of names agreed and the reason the name was chosen:

Skerries Community Association is calling for nominations for the Jim Quigley Volunteer Group of the year.  This award is given annually  to honour the memory of the late Jim Quigley, who gave so much of his time as a volunteer to the town of Skerries. If you want to nominate any group whom you feel deserve this award please send the details by email to Mary Conway at  conwaymcy@eircom.net to reach me before 10th September 2010.
