Mass and Irish Flag Raising
April 23 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT
On Sunday, April 23rd, we will celebrate Mass for Peace and a Flag Raising to commemorate the anniversary of the Easter Uprising at the IACC, 9 Venice Pl, East Haven, CT at 10am.
Following the Mass there will be a ceremony to honor the Patriots of 1916 and the Hunger Strikers. This annual public ceremony serves as a reminder to all ethnic groups that freedom and liberty carry a high price. Local honorees are remembered in a roll call and the original “Proclamation of Freedom” will be read.
Police and Fire Emerald Societies, as well as state and local political officials, are encouraged to attend.
This will be followed by an Irish breakfast, inside our club immediately following the ceremony. Breakfast $15.00.
For information about the Mass/ceremony, please call Anne Hines (203) 488-4902. Breakfast reservations, please contact Anne Hines (203) 488-4902 (ahsheep@aol.com) by 20th April.
In case of inclement weather, the Mass, ceremony and breakfast will all be inside our club.
