It’s hard to believe that Cappanalea OEC is celebrating its 30th year in operation. The Centre first opened to residential groups in July 1981. Prior to that, the property which was purchased by the Killorglin Community Council in 1973, was used as a campsite and as a venue for non residential adventure activities. Since its humble beginnings the Centre has grown from strength to strength over the last thirty years. It has always been recognised that it was the staff and all those associated with Cappanalea OEC who were the major driving force behind its success.
To mark this momentous occasion Cappanalea OEC wishes to acknowledge the contributions that over 300 staff members and volunteers have made to the Centre. On the weekend of the 26th and 27th November 2011, Cappanalea OEC is hosting a weekend of celebration and a reunion of all staff members. We hope to encourage as many past employees and volunteers along with their partners to come back and participate in the :
