Happy St. Patrick’s Day


Our favorite Irishmen and women enjoyed a traditional St. Patrick’s Day corned beef and cabbage dinner at our Clubhouse on Tuesday night.


Continuing our tradition of very successful fundraising events, everyone danced the night away and enjoyed fabulous food and superb desserts. 


A cake and chorus of Happy Birthday were also provided to Pat Palmese, to help celebrate her special day. 

Denny Rogers treated us to a terrific rendition of Danny Boy. 


Kudos to our Board and Club members and friends particularly Joe Spizzirri, for rolling out a terrific night of festivities. Thanks also to VIP DJ Entertainment.
