Coffee Hour and Ceili return to St. Pats Heppner
The Irish Coffee Hour
and Ceili will be back again
this year at the Wee Bit O’
Ireland Celebration in Hep-
pner March 18. Both events
will be held upstairs at the
Elk’s Lodge, the coffee hour
from 10-11:30 a.m. and the
Ceili from 2-4 p.m.
Great programs have
been planned to fill the day
with music and local talent,
and the group Whiskey for
Breakfast will fill listening
ears and hearts with lots of
Irish songs—and, of course,
they will want the audience
to join in. Onlookers and
listeners also shouldn’t be
surprised if Heppner’s lep-
rechauns make an appear-
ance and dance to some of
the music during their visit.
Also at the coffee hour,
the audience will hear some
stories about this year’s
grand marshals, past “key
organizers” of the Heppner
St. Patrick’s celebration,
with a special mention of
founder Jim Farley. It can
only be hoped that Joe
Lindsay will also be there
with a song to share.
The Irish Brogue Con-
test will give the audience a
chance to tell the best “Blar-
ney” stories for a chance to
win some gold coins, so ev-
eryone should be thinking
of something appropriate
to share.
The Ceili will run from
2-4 p.m. with Alan Feves
and the rest of the Whis-
key for Breakfast group.
Joe Lindsay will join to
wrap up the afternoon. The
weekend’s main entertain-
ment, Tiller’s Folly, will be
stopping in around 3 p.m.
to sing a few of their songs
to get everyone warmed up
for their concert, planned
for 7:30 p.m. in the Gilliam
and Bisbee building.
The weekend is sure to
make everyone want to clap
their hands, stomp their
feet, have a few laughs and
even dance as they enjoy
some great Irish music and
entertainment.
St. Patrick’S Day
St. Patrick’s Day is here, you see.
We’ll pick some shamrocks,
one, two, three.
We’ll count the leaves and look
them over,
And maybe find a four-leafed clover.
I’ll sew green buttons on my vest.
Green for St. Patrick is the best.
I’ll wear a green hat, very high,
And dance a jig - at least I’ll try!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day
from all of us at the Heppner Gazette-Times
