MARCH 2015

THE ST PATRICK'S DAY BALL WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!
Thank you to all who came out to honor our Hibernians of the Year.

Judy Corbett and Kevin Hearty are excellent examples of the volunteers who have built these organizations and helped make us prosper.
They both give hours of their time ( often behind the scenes ) to make things happen.

Congratulations to them and their families. We know that without our families support we would not be able to give the time we do as volunteers.

Judy was unable to attend but her charming nieces, Kim and Leslie graciously accepted on her behalf. Those of us who know Judy, know that she is very proud of the "kids" and we had the opportunity to show her family how much we appreciate everything Judy does for us here at the club.

Judy is at Bethel Healthcare and if you would like to send her a card or note, the address is:
Judy Corbett, Rm 311

Every year we have served delicious Corned Beef dinners and sandwiches on St Patrick's Day. This year will be no different.
In order to make it all happen and be profitiable for the club we need help from our members.

We need some help preparing all that corned beef and welcome anyone who can spare a few hours during the week of March 9th.
If you are free during the day or in the afternoon or evening, we need your help.

On St Patrick's Day we need help serving the crowds we are expecting, as well as again on Parade Day, March 22.

Contact Joan Berry at 203-819-3041 if you are willing to help.



Come join us as we celebrate this month.
