125th Annual Dinner Dance
Honorees
As we celebrate this milestone anniversary and the beginning of a new decade, we have decided this year to have as our guests of honor a special group of people that have made a huge contribution to our society over the past 50 years. Many of whom are octogenarians and some are nonagenarians. These members represent the very best quality and principles that guided our society to the success it is today. All of these men and women immigrated many years ago, yet have never forgot the customs and traditions of our native county that they grew up with. We are thankful for their work commitment and dedication to our society in keeping these traditions alive and well in their adopted country. We are delighted to have them as our guests and will forever be grateful for everything that each of these members represent.
Congratulations to the following 10 deserving honorees:
Agnes Beirne, Carrick-on-Shannon - Former 2nd Vice President, Trustee and Dance Committee Chairperson.
