The Vigil Website has not been updated recently - hopefully soon will be -- but the Vigil people ARE most definitely still there ...   
and going out every day to peacefully stop the earthmoving equipment from destroying more of the sites 

But they desperately need more people as those there are strong and determined  and wonderful people - but at the edge of exhaustion -

also food , firewood , cameras , simcards , rechargable batteries , waterproofs , wellingtons , tarpaulins ,  clean dry socks , phone credits , money for petrol  etc etc

                                 But it is a wonderful , magical and inspiring place to be

there are two camps -
~~~ the Vigil camp on the Hill of Tara -found by turning right at the gate onto the hill and following the road around for about a hundred yards until you see tents on the left and a gap in the hedge

~~~ and the Activists camp at Rath Lugh - set up in the woods to watch over the wood henge at Lismullin

Answer to a letter on the Save Tara Yahoo group   14th Sept 2007

" To get to Rath Lugh, take the N3 out of Dublin. Go past the turning
for Tara. Turn right opposite the 'Tara na Ri' pub. Take the next
right , signposted to Skreen. Go straight on at the next crossroads
and after about 1/4 mile, pull over at lay by on the Right. Go
straight up into the woods to reach the camp.(You will need a torch
if arriving at night)
