Past Events 2012 St Paddy's Party ... here we go...WYA's 2nd St. Paddy's Day celebration!! Harry and Lori Wehr graciously hosted the party in Harry's phenomenal party room and bar. A retired New York City Fire Fighter, Harry honors the City's finest with an area chock full of wonderful FDNY memorabilia. |

And, here are our hosts, Harry and Lori. We owe them a great big THANKS, and especially to Harry who let the ladies monopolize his incredible pub with layers of Irish green for the party. At right, you can see two of the several serving stations. |

Doing yeoman's work on the planning, decorating and cooking for the event were Lori Wehr, Carey Bolin, and MJ Smith, shown at right. Also contributing appetizers and desserts was Macrissa whose picture I failed to get. Thank s to all four ladies for their hard work and good humor! Great food including corned beef and cabbage, Irish stew, Irish breads, more appetizers than I can name, plus amazing desserts. Unlike the potato famine, no one left hungry. |
