BENEFIT CONCERT FOR BRUCE COMER :

     Everyone who knows Bruce knows that he loves a good party so that’s what we are giving him.  Please come and join us on November 20th at Flanagan’s Pub for a night of great friends, great music with Dulahan, great fun and most of all to show our support and raise funds for Bruce and his family.  Music starts at 8:00pm and there will be a basket raffle, 50/50’s and dinner specials –all of which will go into a fund to directly benefit Bruce and his family.  Come early, meet some friends and have a tasty pork tenderloin dinner special before the show starts. 

     If you have enjoyed the Dayton Celtic Festival, the Gem City Feis, World Affair, various CA and K of C Fish Frys, or enjoyed all of the amenities at the CA studio then you have benefitted from Bruce’s hard work in his recurring role of the “go-to guy” or “the man behind the scenes.”  He’s the guy who builds the stages, fixes the roof, plans the layout and rigs or tweaks things so that they can get us through one more year.  Even if you may not know him personally the chances are that you have benefitted in some way from his efforts so please consider attending and giving generously at this event.

 

 

Reminder to change the Academy e-mail address to celticacademy “at sign”att “dot” net.  Please let me know if you are not receiving any Academy e-mails!
