A stunning calendar featuring 13 beautiful images of Lurgan Park taken by local photographers is now on sale and can be picked up from the Gate Lodge at the Park.
Showcasing the wildlife, the scenery and all of the wonderful things the Park has to offer this calendar is a perfect Christmas gift and costs just £3 each or £5 for two.
Amateur photographers were invited to take part in Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council’s annual Lurgan Park photography competition with the winning photographs appearing in the calendar.
With plenty of room on each day of each month to keep all appointments and children’s activities noted, you can stay super organised while enjoying a lovely photo of the Park at the same time.
There are a limited number of these calendars available so make sure don’t miss out. Call down to the Park and pick up your copy today or contact Leanne McShane on 07766 740427 to reserve your copy.

Santa Claus and some of his special Elves will be taking time out of their busy schedule to give little boys and girls the opportunity to visit them in their Magical Grotto at the Orchard Leisure Centre from Friday 7 December to Saturday 22 December.
Children will be able to write their letter to Santa and post it in Santa’s special post box which he will be personally taking back to the North Pole. They will then visit Santa in the Magical Grotto, share their Christmas wishes with Santa, receive a selection box and spend one hour playing in Gulliver’s soft play area.
Please be advised that the Play Awareness sessions for Parents element of our EITP funded Play Matters project is now open for bookings.
We are particularly keen to target those ‘harder to reach’ parents, those with a child with a disability and/or those parents identified as needing further support in terms of their play awareness, skills or confidence.
Have a playful and positive attitude towards the winter season; show your children that winter can be fun. Try to model ways to be playful …. stamp your feet on ice patches or in puddles, have a snowball fight, play in the rain, make snow angels or snowmen! Take a breath of that cold winter air and remember that whatever you do outdoors you are supporting your children’s health, wellbeing and happiness.
