Irish Festival

[Marietta Graziella]

Hey All!

The Irish Faire is happening this weekend on Harriet Island!  Anyone interested in meeting up to enjoy this event?

Gonna miss it this year.  Wedding on Saturday and a 5k on Sunday.   

[Kiss-me-Kate]

We are out too.  We are celebrating the Boy starting college on Saturday night.  I know it sounds silly, but if you only knew what I have gone through to get him going!

I have not been picked up yet for that weekend. And...I have not worn a kilt a long time! So...i want to go. Will have to get a sitter ready.

[Leyla]

I've got a workshop all weekend that doesn't end until 6pm. I won't be able to make it.

[Charlotte Rowan]

Probably not...Saturday is my last free day until after Fest, since Sunday we have a 5 hour practice.... I love the Irish Fair, but this year I think I'm skipping it in favor of some down time.

That thing called work.....

[Jon Hanslow]

Stupid work...

[DeadBishop]

Yeah, was looking forward to the Irish Fair but work is already denying my days off requests.  Not sure what I'll do if they pull this for faire too....

As long as I get my assignment, I'll be working the Gaeltacht Minnesota booth for a couple of hours.  Feel free to stop by and say hi, and I'll be up for a pint or two afterwards. And some cookies. Mmmmm, oatmeal cookies.

yup, we are going. Most likely Saturday with the kids. Now I just have to decide on what kilt to wear?

Are you involved with Gaeltacht MN? I took a few classes with them and then had to give it up cause I was too swamped finishing my masters paper (on Irish-American identity and the Irish language, ironically), but I really enjoyed it and would like to start up again soon.

I'm currently taking Irish classes, and while it's kicking my butt, I'm really enjoying it.  Definitely think about joining in again.

Hey all,

I'll be at the Gaeltacht Minnesota booth from two to four today! Come say hi and get your Irish on.
