Fódhla News

Campers:

Meet in den at 10:15 tomorrow with all your gear.  You do not have to travel in Uniform, but MUST have it with you, including Duck.  You may wear hiking boots (not wellies) as part of the uniform instead of black shoes for Mass on Sunday.

We will load trailer and leave for Powerscourt at 10:30.

Directions: Through Enniskerry heading for Powerscourt Gardens.  Pass by the entrance to the gardens and keep the wall on your right.  Golden Gates (coloured black !!) will be on your right, just before narrow bridge.  Gates should be open with Warden in attendance.  If not, call me.

We will leave site on Monday at 13:00 provided site is clear and is left as, or better than, when we arrived. ———- Leave no trace —————-

 

MOBILE PHONES ARE BANNED FROM CAMP AND WILL BE CONFISCATED FOR DURATION OF CAMP
