I have lots of memories of the Dublin Irish Festival. It has grown tremendously since we first started going there in 1996 (or close to it). It used to be a relatively small event, but it is so large now, you have to be bussed in from area parking lots. We actually haven’t been in a few years, because the crowds have become so massive and I also tend to wilt in the August heat. But I do love all things Irish! I am looking forward to going to see Mary Black perform this year on Saturday at 5:45 pm.

One of my favorite things to do at the Dublin Irish Festival, besides the music, is watching the Irish dancers. The Richens/Timm Academy of Irish Dance always features wonderful children and young adult dancers.

In 1997, I had back surgery and I still remember walking around the Irish Festival with my parents, Joe, and Bobbie, as well as Joe’s cousins, Larry and Phyllis. I had to wear comfy stretch shorts, because the wound on my back had not healed and I was leaking a mysterious fluid that turned out to be cerebral spinal fluid. Not long after that weekend, I was back in the hospital to have the fluid flow stopped. Surprisingly, that memory doesn’t dim my fondness for this Festival–probably because I love all things Irish!
