Annual Dinner Dance
A Chara,
We cordially invite you and your friends to join us in
celebrating the third year of the new Irish Center – the first
to be serving the whole of the Irish community in the tri-State
area. Our Dinner Dance is being held in Antun’s,
96-43 Springfield Boulevard, Queens Village, NY11429, on
Friday evening, April 11, 2008, commencing at 8:00 pm
with a deluxe Cocktail Hour followed by Dinner and Dancing from
9:00 pm until 1:00 am.
Tickets are priced at $80 each (Table of ten $800) and
can be purchased by calling the Center at 718-482-0908 or can be
purchased online here.
Music will be provided by the popular Summer Wind.
We are privileged to have as our Guests of Honor two men who
have made huge contributions to the Irish community over the
years:
James P. Mahoney is a native New Yorker who has been
honored for his tremendous work by many organizations throughout
the years. In 1982 James began his career in the Ornamental
Ironworkers Local 580 working in all phases of the Industry,
Journeyman, Steward and foreman. In 1996 he was elected as
business agent for the Brooklyn/Queens area and in 1999 he was
elected to the Manhattan Business agent position which he still
holds. James was greatly involved with the Irish Center from
it’s inception, and was instrumental in securing people for the
iron work needed here at the Center.
Sean Mackin, a native Irish man from the north of
Ireland, is a member of our Board of Directors. He has built a
very successful business based on the trade he served his time
to in Belfast — plumbing! Sean, and his beautiful wife
Philomena, and devoted family, are well known in the community
for supporting causes especially for the under-privileged and
disadvantaged. He has been a dedicated friend to the Irish
Center from the time it was just a dream of a few Irish people
who saw the changes coming and the need for a focus for the
Irish community.
Please make every effort to join us in this celebration and help
us raise the necessary funds to continue our present much needed
programs in the community and also to develop other equally
necessary facilities for the ever changing Irish American scene.
We would like to invite you to visit our website
www.nyirish.org to see our many ongoing
events that we’d like you to participate in or avail of as well
as space for rental for many programs or events.
