Our vision is to safeguard all that we hold dear about our community, during these challenging times of growth and development. We wish to protect and enhance the quality of life for those who live, work and visit our town and for future generations who will follow. In pursuit of this vision, we will work tirelessly, and will encourage and support all those who share our goal.

The SDCA was relaunched on the 27th May and the name has been changed to the Skerries Community Association Limited (SCA).

The SDCA was set up in 1934 to represent the interests and future development of Skerries. At that time the Skerries Visitors Association (SVA) that had been in existence since the turn of the century requested that the two groups amalgamate.

Over the coming decades dedicated, committed and hard working individuals gave their time freely to help shape and develop Skerries into the wonderful community it is today, with its abundance of amenities and services. We have much to be thankful to them for. The following are some of the fruits of their work carried out in conjunction with the County Council and in some instances FAS:

	The preservation of Red Island for public use
	The construction and management of the Community Centre, which opened in 1982
	The restoration of the Old School House, completed in 1996
	Sponsorship of the restoration of Ardgillan Castle, and its management
	Sponsorship of the restoration of the Windmill and Water Mill
	The provision of tennis Courts and All-weather pitch

Today, we hold true to the original intent of the Association as we strive to represent the interests and future developments of Skerries.
