Enjoy craic led by this tenor balladeer with Special Guest Jim Paulsen. The great , great grandson of Irish immigrants drawn to Vermont in the 1860’s, Patrick performs traditional work songs , sea shanties, and ballads. His rendition of Irish American composer Patrick Gilmore’s Civil War song “When Johnny Comes Marching Home” is moving and a wonderful tribute to our vets.

5:30- 6:00pm: Traditional Dancing : The Heather Morris Celtic Dancers
We are thrilled to see our good friends again; The Heather Morris Celtic School of Dance from Charlotte, VT has cultivated Celtic roots since 1977. Their Irish Step dance, characterized by percussive footwork is wildly popular !
6:00-8:00 pm: Music by : The Dale and Darcy Cahill Band
The husband-and-wife tandem of Dale and Darcy Cahill might be best known to audiences beyond the trad-folk realm as key members of rowdy local Celtic punk band the Cop Outs. But when they're not sloshing pints and shouting singsong choruses with that outfit, you'll typically find them on cozier stages around Vermont as the acoustic duo Dale and Darcy.
8:00-9:00 pm: Sleight-of-Hand Artist: Christopher McBride
Watch your wallet as this Westford lad performs his latest amazing magic through use of deft maneuvers like overhands, riffles, hawmows, faro shuffles, riffle stacking, handmucking, aerating and balderdash!
