Charity Event “Dalkey Devils get together with Barretstown”
Barretstown’s mission is to rebuild the lives of children affected by serious illness and their families. We believe that every child with serious illness should enjoy their childhood.
Barretstown was founded by Hollywood actor Paul Newman in 1994 and modelled on his renowned Hole in the Wall Gang Camp in Connecticut, USA. We serve children affected by serious illnesses – primarily cancer and serious blood diseases – from Ireland, Britain and throughout Europe, and their families.
All of the children and families come to Barretstown free of charge. Everything, including accommodation, food, medical assistance and round-trip airfares are provided at no cost to the family. Barretstown is supported by donations and the fundraising efforts of corporate supporters, individuals and community groups.
On the day:
– Volleyball tournament;
– Refreshments will be provided in exchange for a donation;
– A raffle will be held with the proceeds donated to the charity;
– Merchandise to be sold on the day;
– Face-painting;
– Caricature.

10 am – 4 pm, Entry fee is €10 per player
We hope to see you all on April 25th for a day of great fun and great volleyball, in aid of a great cause!
