When Irish Eyes are Smiling...

As we embark on this trip, I am reminded of the many sacrifices we have made this year to make the journey to Ireland.  The students have fund raised, practiced, performed and fund raised some more...all for a chance to walk down the main streets in Dublin and Limerick and see old world castles and perform the worlds' BEST music in 1,000 year old cathedrals.  And yet all of this immense fun and learning does not come without a bit of sadness: it will all be over soon!  13 months of preparation, payments, planes and performing will be memories in one week's time.  I am confident the students will perform to the greatest expectations and will represent home with the utmost respect and honor.

To all of the families and businesses who gave of their time and gave their dollars to this great adventure, WE say THANK YOU and we ask for your thoughts and prayers for a safe journey and a lifetime's worth of memories. 

We will see you in Dublin!
