Help Send the Culkin Adults to All Irelands

The first day of the new year... and 50 days until the ceili club competition in Killarney at All Irelands. And we're hoping you might be able to help us get there.

To help defray some of the cost of sending our ladies to the All Irelands, the Culkin Adult Irish Dancers have created a 2010 calendar and notecards available for purchase online. $5 from the sale of each calendar will help us get to Killarney and back.

Check out the calendar and cards at http://www.cafepress.com/shopirishdance/6973766

Best part is that you get something too -- beautiful photography, together with inspiring dance quotes to get you through the year.  And while the Culkin ladies were the models, it's great for all ages of dancers!

Gazette Article Highlights Culkin School 10th Anniversary

Hughes ClassThe February 21st edition of the Montgomery Gazette features an article on the 10th Anniversary of the founding of the Culkin School.

However, there is one not-so-small error in the story -- to quote Mark Twain, "The report of my death was an exaggeration." As the Culkin School Family knows, Sean's mother is not deceased and is alive and well despite the reporter's "exaggeration."  You'll be able to see her (and joke about the article) at our upcoming shows this St. Patrick's season!

Follow this link to read the full article on the Montgomery Gazette website.
