The Legend of the Summer Camp at Dungarvan

 













1986 RTE Interview of Paul Ryan - Camp Director




At about this time it appears that the popularity of camps was exploding and the number of regional camps available increased dramatically. This had a direct competitive impact on the camp in Dungarvan. It continued but its popularity and attendance started to dwindle.

Special Thanks to Don Lyons for his many contributions to the Dungarvan Camp life over the years and for his work establishing the Facebook Group  - Dungarvan Ireland Basketball Camp  and saving so much of the camps history.

      All pass that on to Don Lyons. I would ask that you encourage the other veterans of the camp to share their memories on the Irish Basketball History and More Facebook Group. Every bit of info is appreciated.
