March

Irish Breakfast
The first Sunday in March we have our annual breakfast where our members prepare and serve a traditional Irish breakfast. Our fundraising table is filled with Irish items, the annual raffle supports our St. Patrick's Day parade participation.
 
Saint Patrick's Day
Leading up to the event we sell our commemorative badges and plan for our participation in the parade. Our float is always one of the parade highlights. We begin the big day with a procession to mass, honoring the patron saint of all Irish people. After mass we march in the parade through downtown Columbus to the Irish Family Reunion. This is a special day for the Irish community. Friendships are rekindled and the soul of the Irish is renewed.

Gifts are collected for families we adopt each year. Family information (ages, gender,  sizes, etc.) and wish lists are collected and printed in the newsletter in advance so that members may buy for the families. In the past we have donated clothes, toys, toiletries, household items, tools, as well as furniture.
