Latest News

CDARA, Castlecomer’s very active branch of the Federation was founded in 2002. It started with twelve members and now has sixty. It has been years of education, fun, travel and companionship and has given new life to its members.

The Association has been busy organising various interests during this time. Members have enjoyed educational, cultural, sporting and social activities. Classes in Calligraphy, Glass Etching, Chess, Aerobics, Computers for Beginners and Line Dancing were arranged. Card playing and Walking for Health were taken up also. Talks have been given on Composting, Re-cycling, Meals on Wheels, Alternate Medicines, Facilities for the Disabled, Emergency Response, Community Alert and the value of using the Ring-a-Link bus service.

The climax of the year is the Christmas Dinner. To date they have been held in Castlecomer Golf Club, Bewley’s Hotel Dublin and The Avalon House Hotel also in Castlecomer where members made merry and celebrated the spirit of Christmas before getting ready for another year of activities to keep the mind and body alert and active.
