Chuireadh Cumann Réalteolaíocta na hÉireann (CRÉ) ar bun sa bhliain 1937 chun spéis a chothú agus a leathnú in iontaisí na cruinne. Sé an CRÉ an cumann réalteolaíochta is buaine a mhaireann in Éirinn. Cumann deonach sea é agus ar a bhallríocht áirítear réalteolaithe amaitéaracha agus gairmiúla. Beidh fáilte is fiche romhat má shocríonn tú ar teacht isteach. Níl aon coinníoll maidir le bheith eolach ar an réalteolaíocht.
