This year Camphill Duffcarrig celebrates 40 years of existence. From that February day in 1972 when the community was handed the keys to Duffcarrig House to the well established community for 70 people in 8 houses it has been a long and interesting journey.
We will hold a number of events during the year to celebrate our 40th birthday.
27th May 2012 5pm: Whitsun (Pentecost). Play presentation of Kaspar Hauser in Juniper Hall.
24th June 2012. Family Day for relatives of the people with special needs living in Duffcarrig. We will remember 40 years of growth in our community with recollections from family and friends.
29th July 2012, 2-5pm: Our annual Open Day selling crafts with our fantastic waffles, BBQ and tea, coffee and cakes as well.
31st July-4th August 2012: Cultural Week. Activities to be advised. All our former co-workers and special friends are invited to join us for some or all of this week.
