Dear Members
I want to thank each and every one of you who came out this past Sunday to enjoy our St. Patrick’s Day Festivities.
It was a jam-packed day from start to finish with live music, Irish Dancers, stew from the kitchen and prizes and giveaways. We even had a visit from the one and only former mayor Hazel McCallion.
The atmosphere was friendly and the room was filled with fun and light hearted laughter. Exactly the way a Paddy's Day should be.
The Bar Staff of Sinead, Carl, Denise, Sarah, Richard, Aaron and Roxanne did an amazing job keeping everyone hydrated.
Mary-Ellen, Ina and Maureen deserve thanks for keeping the glasses coming back and going through the dishwasher which is crucial to keep the train on track.
Dana deserves a shout out for being our audio tech and liaison throughout the entire day.
There were many new faces on hand throughout the day and I think they saw how great our Club is on its busiest day of the year.
The Committee's Social Media team of Kelly, Kerin and Sinead should be given a big nod for getting our name out in the public’s eyes and mind. Any of us on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter can add to that by liking and sharing posts - I know many of you do already, so thank you!
A day like Sunday can only happen when there are dedicated members, starting with our Decorating Committee, who come in on a Saturday morning & work tirelessly to get the Club looking just right - for St Paddy's and every holiday.
The Committee's planning and reworking of plans and the running around behind the scenes is all part of the preparation and logistics toward one goal - to ensure that we all have a great time and show outsiders what a fabulous Club we have. I think we can modestly say we did just that.
To that end we say a sincere “Thank You” to all our members who made the non-members feel welcome and part of the day. We had many comments from the visitors in the crowd saying just that.
I want to personally thank Kelly, Roxanne, Shanen, Kerin, Sinead, Carl, Mary Ellen, Aaron, Willa and Martin for all your efforts toward making Sunday a St Paddy's Day to remember!
In closing, I think you would join me in sincerely thanking our cleaning crew who come in after Sunday ( and every event for that matter ) to clean it up and put it all back together so we can enjoy another great day as we make more days and evenings to remember.
See you all around the Club!
Sincerely
John Barry
