Only 22 Days until Cleveland’s Irish Cultural Festival

Only 23 Days Until Cleveland’s Irish Cultural Festival

Hi Friends,

As you know (maybe), I have been involved in putting on an Irish Festival in Cleveland for more than 20 years (www.clevelandirish.org). It is only 23 days away - July 21-23. If you are anywhere close, I hope you can make it. I have met a few MySpace people and they have all been fun and I would love to meet more of you. This is a non-profit event, with over $350,000.00 given to local and national Charities.
