MDI Family Camp 2025: Another Magical Weekend!

We were thrilled to return to Barretstown for our second annual MDI Family Camp, held from May 16–18. This year, 24 families - 99 campers in total - joined us for a weekend full of laughter, connection, and just the right amount of chaos!

There was no shortage of action across the weekend: horse-riding, canoeing, rock climbing, mini-golf, archery, arts and crafts, music and drama…and as for the parents? Let’s just say there were some very interesting outfit choices, and as far as we’re concerned, what happens at camp stays at camp 😉.

A few words from parents:
💬 “By Saturday, he had the sparkle back in his eyes. It is a very special thing you do.”
💬 “It is truly the most relaxed and content we have felt in a very long time.”
💬 “It was magical.”

A heartfelt thank you to the team at Barretstown, our staff and volunteers, and of course our families – all of whom helped make this magic happen 🙏✨
