We hope you are having fun this summer!

Corvallis Celtic Festival 

It was a joy to participate in Make Music Day!!  We brought our own music for dancing at Minto Island Growers and Santiam Brewing. This is an annual international event that started in France in 1982 where free music would fill the streets and public spaces coinciding with the summer solstice. Make Music Day happens all over the world. 

Salem had 230 musicians/performers in 52 venues this year. There is no better way to celebrate the beginning of summer!!

A good time at Eugene Scottish Festival, dancing to live music provided by D’n’A (Doug and Amey).! Brave audience members  joined us to learn some dances!

We had fun at this Culture Fair. A young man volunteered to help fold and model 9 yards of tartan turned into a kilt!

We have been so busy and it’s been awhile since we’ve posted. There’s no better time than to start during St. Patrick’s Day week. Here’s to a weekend of craic!!

CÉILÍ ON!! Party On!
