Dillon's Park Cleanup
Dillon's Park Cleanup
Come join me in cleaning up litter at Dillon's Park in Dalkey. I will supply a cart, bags/buckets, litter grabbers, and occasionally a dog (for morale). Feel free to bring your own equipment if you have it. Here's the plan: 1. Meet at the park entrance 2. Collect litter around the park. 3. Circle back to the starting point when finished. Note that we will walk in wet grass/mud on occasion and will be handling litter, so best to wear appropriate clothes, footwear and gloves. Please check weather before attending to ensure you're dressed for it. Feel free to drop in or out at whatever time suits you. I'm typically out for an hour or two or until the area I'm focused on has been cleaned. Feel free to message me with any questions.
Bray History Tour - Guided Walk and Time to Chat - St. Patrick's Day Special
Bray History Tour - Guided Walk and Time to Chat - St. Patrick's Day Special
***Join us on a history-focused walking tour of Bray! This is a St. Patrick's Day special with lots of general history and a Paddy's Day story for the day that's in it!*** Hi everyone, my name is Marina Boyle and I'm a local tour guide excited to share Bray with you! On this guided walk I'll take you through the local stories of early Bray through to Victorian times and into the modern day. Did you know that Bray was once a popular honeymoon destination? Or indeed a smuggling hot spot, home to Turkish Baths, and the location of Ireland's oldest film studio? As I share these stories and more, there will also be plenty of time to chat and make connections. Whether you are local, new to the area, or wanting to learn and make friends at the same time, this tour is for you! We'll start at Bray Harbour, opposite the Harbour Bar. This is accessible by DART, bus or car. The tour will finish in a similar location and last approximately 1.5 hours. This is a tip based tour. If you enjoy the tour and are able to give a contribution, any amount is appreciated. I am looking forward to meeting you :)

Ireland for St. Patrick's Day
Ireland for St. Patrick's Day
Click Link for all of the details: [https://www.suitcasegals.com/ireland-the-emerald-isle-march-16-26-2026](Ireland for St. Patrick's Day) Ireland, as experienced through this journey, unfolds like a timeless story—rich with old stone, sweeping green hills, and villages full of character. From the tranquil Wicklow Mountains to Kilkenny’s medieval charm, the country welcomes you with warmth and a deep sense of history. Cobh’s colorful harbor, Blarney’s legendary castle, and the bright streets of Kinsale offer a mix of heritage and lighthearted spirit. Farther west, West Cork, Killarney, and the Dingle Peninsula reveal Ireland at its most poetic—wild coasts, quiet lakes, and landscapes that feel almost sacred. The Cliffs of Moher rise in dramatic glory before Galway shifts the rhythm with music, markets, and seaside bustle. A stop in Athlone whispers a thousand years of stories, while Dublin brings the journey home with grand traditions, lively pubs, and cultural treasures at every turn. Throughout, Ireland feels both familiar and magical—a land that cherishes its past, embraces its visitors, and invites you to savor every winding mile.

reviving gardans, Growing community
reviving gardans, Growing community
**Hands in the Soil: Community Growing, Learning & Craic** This first gathering will be a relaxed mix of **hands-on garden work, shared learning, and good conversation**. It’s about getting together in a real space, doing something practical, and seeing what ideas and connections might grow from there. On the day, we’ll: * Get our **hands dirty** with some light garden work and soil prep * Do some **seed sowing** and talk about what grows well locally * **Make kombucha together** and chat about fermentation, food, and simple home practices * Share knowledge, questions, and experiences around growing food * Enjoy some **fellowship, chats, and a bit of craic** along the way.Alongside the practical side, we’ll also have an open, informal discussion about a bigger idea: * The possibility of **small community “park farms” or gardens** in underused green spaces around Dublin * What that might look like, what’s realistic, and whether others feel drawn to exploring it further There’s no pressure, no expertise required, and no expectation beyond showing up with curiosity and a willingness to pitch in. Whether you’re experienced with gardening or completely new, you’re very welcome. Bring clothes you don’t mind getting muddy, and if you have them, gloves. Everything else will be very low-key. This is just a **first step** — a chance to meet, work, talk, and see if there’s a shared appetite to keep growing something together.

Kevin Rhodus from Lucy Deep Park Northside is coming to talk to us about his extensive neighborhood Christmas light display that is open in November and December every year north of Dublin. 9 houses over 12 acres and over 120,000 individual controlled lights that sync to music which you can tune into on your radio! Quite impressive! https://ldplights.com/ We'll dive into the tech that runs the show -- should be a blast to hear about this very elaborate display! While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Dublin Library in the Meeting Room 2
