Once again the Mayor turned up in La Herradura during February, this time it was for the inauguration of the new sports ground in the Las Maravillas area of the village.
The new centre boasts a full sized football pitch, handball court and two basketball courts, and has been enthusiastically received by local people.
The Mayor was joined by the Deputy Mayor of La Herradura, Maria Victoria Ruiz and the Councillor for Youth, Daniel Barbero and several others from the municipal government.
The event, which included a football tournament, was lucky enough to be held on one of the few sunny days during last month, and food was supplied in the form of a paella made by members of Club Deportivo La Herradura 05, who also organised the tournament.
The new facilities will be available to all who wish to practice sport, and will also be available to local education facilities.
The facilities cover a total of 165 m2 and include two multipurpose rooms which include pubic toilets. The centre had a total budget of 28,665.74 euros, and the building project was completed by Camacho Brothers Construction, and was included in the Transitional Employment Program (K.E.E.P.)
