It’s no surprise that this past weekend was a busy one for the Irish Society of Delmarva! Colorfully-clad Society members took part in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Dover on Saturday. The theme of the float was the significant contributions of Irish Americans to the United States. Among the crowd favorites were Tom Kinkus as Art Rooney (of Pittsburg fame) and Jack Royston as “Wrong Way Corrigan.” And the night before, the Society raised money for its Tom Winnberg Scholarship Fund at its annual St. Patrick’s Day party, a fundraising event featuring great Irish music by the Sean Fleming Band, door prizes and – in the spirit of the holiday’s revelry – a significant Basket of Cheer that was raffled off for only $1 per chance.
