The purpose of this page is to list sites of interest to the Irish Community.
We try to list local Irish groups, Irish organizations, businesses, pubs,
Irish dance schools and Irish music sites, as well as genealogy links,
travel links, Irish news links and links to web sites in Ireland.
If you have a
site you believe would be of interest to our members and viewers, please
let us know. We can not list everyone, but will certainly try to list
your site if our board deems it appropriate.
