Suíomh Gréasáin Nua / New Web Site

Our old site was rather difficult to edit. Plus in 2015, so many free options are available to us that we're going to leverage a few of them. The site has been converted over to Blogger. If you have a gmail account you'd like to contribute as an author, please contact Matt.

Irish Study Group, Late Start Feb 19

I've been informed by Paperbacks Plus that our room will be in use by
another group until 3:00 this Saturday, February 19.  So the beginners
group will meet at 3:00 and we will start the intermediate session
around 4:00.

Irish Class Dec. 18

The Irish Study Group will meet on Saturday, December 18 at the Paperbacks Plus Bookstore. We'll deviate a little from our normal pattern and everyone will meet at 2 pm for a Christmas celebration.

(If you've ever felt tempted to bring some home-baked cookies to class this would be the perfect opportunity.) Afterwards we'll head over to the pub for a pint or two.

We won't meet again until January 8.

2011 Irish Workshop

Gach éinne (everyone)

Start to consider attending our 2011 Language Event on Saturday April 30th, 2011

Based on past years and feedback from current learners and those who have expressed interest we have come up with a plan that provides more flexibility and options to fit the pocketbook.

We will again have teachers that are fluent in the language.

The program will be one day, on Saturday only, with the choice of attending an AM session, PM session or both.

Additionally the new location will offer more choices for before and after class activities. (Courtyard Marriott at The Village at Allen) Lunch and snacks will be included regardless of whether you attend one or both sessions.

Cost $40 per session, $75 if you attend both
AM Session Beginners 9:30 - 12:30
AM Session Advanced 9:30 - 12:30
Lunch - ALL 12:30 - 1:30
PM Session Intermediate 1:30 - 4:30
PM Session Advanced 1:30 - 4:30

Tá súil agam go mbainfidh sibh sult as ár programme
