Luck 'o the Irish

This summer Nora made us all proud as we watched her dance her heart out on TV. She is a member of the Nelson Doyle Dancers and they performed for Live at 5 on Friday, July 15th during Miramichi's Irish Festival. Nora was all smiles and it's evident to everyone she really enjoys it and has some amazing talent. The group performed 5 times during the festival and is always a crowd pleaser.

During the Irish Festival, they were formally invited to Ireland to perform and are slated to leave August 7th, 2012 for a ten day excursion. How exciting!! Fundraising is already underway for this trip of a lifetime. They will soon be selling tickets on one of Fred's beautiful wooden rocking chairs. Hollie will let us know when she has some tickets to sell.

Another fundraiser that will be of particular interest to the Coughlan Clan is a dinner theatre being held at the Newcastle Kin Center on Friday, December 2nd. The Heritage Players will perform "A Mountain School Christmas" written by Valerie. Valerie is a beautiful play-write so this production is sure to be a great show. The Nelson Doyle Dancers will also be on hand to dance for the audience so this is sure to be a night not to miss. Hollie will soon have all the final details on tickets and we'll post it here.

Good luck with the fundraising Nora and congratulations on your wonderful television debut!
