A Memorable Irish Fellowship St. Patrick's Day Dinner
Chicago’s St. Patrick's Day weekend celebration began with a very special Irish Fellowship St. Patrick’s Day Dinner attended by the Taoiseach of Ireland, Brian Cowen, and the Ambassador of Ireland to the United States, Michael Collins. This was an exceptional honor for the Fellowship and the Irish community of Chicago.
The 107th annual dinner was held at the Chicago Hilton and Towers Hotel. A sellout crowd of Irish Fellowship members and distinguished guests were treated to a brilliant evening of camaraderie, fine dining, spiritied irish music and dancing. The proceeds of the dinner went to the Irish Fellowship Education and Cultural Foundation. |
