The population of Corofin has been growing steadily in
recent years and over one hundred new houses alone have been
constructed in the hinterland of Corofin village itself
inside the last five years. Corofin is one of the biggest
parishes in the Archdiocese of Tuam. The ecclesiastical name
of the parish is Cummer and Kilmoylan.
In a recent calculation there are now 820 families
approximately in the Corofin side of the parish. The number
of baptisms in the church of St. Colman in Corofin last year
came to sixty-nine. Newcomers the parish, have a number of
organisations to chose from if they wish to be become
involved in the community – a number of which we list below.
Strangers often associated “Corofin” in Co. Clare which was
made famous by Percy French, but now our Corofin is well
known throughout the entire country mainly through the great
success of the G.A.A. club both on and off the field.
