Oiche maith a gach duine agus cead mile failte romhat. Good evening everyone and a hundred thousand welcomes!

We are more than halfway to Saint Patrick’s Day and we certainly kicked off the celebrations with our past annual Irish Festival. Part of our mission is to present Irish culture to the community at large and at this year’s festival we surely did fulfill part of our mission. We had a wonderful lineup of bands and dancers that entertained and highlighted our Irish culture. Thank you to our chairpersons, Paul Flynn, Amy Lacey and Jerry Hodges who were responsible for organizing this year’s festival. All of this could not have been completed without our wonderful volunteers who so graciously volunteered their time so that guests could celebrate everything that is Irish.

Although the Irish Festival is one of our greatest fundraisers and is always in need of volunteers, our clubhouse is always looking for volunteers. Most of you know that our club is completely run by volunteers and many donate so much of their time to ensure that our clubhouse is running efficiently. Please consider joining one of our many committees that sparks an interest in you. I promise, you will reap the benefits through formed friendship and many laughs that many enjoy but most importantly you will be assisting with maintaining and sustaining our Irish heritage.

Go Raibh Mile Maith Agat
