Keeping with tradition, the group celebrated in the picturesque Wharf Room in the Boston Harbor Hotel. With popular Irish band Devri providing a variety of Irish and up-tempo music, guests enjoyed perfectly-drawn pints of Guinness and hors d’oeuvres. Bidding on silent auction items including premium sports tickets, golf dates, spa visits, hotel stays and restaurant gift certificates added to the excitement. St. Patrick’s Celebration Chairman Amy Koch Flynn thanked everyone, especially Terence Connell, Mike Greeley and Aengus McAllister, who served as Vice Chairmen. The American Ireland Fund New England Director and Vice President of Major Gifts Steve Greeley then put the event in context by highlighting The American Ireland Fund’s forty year history and the importance of the Young Leaders to the Funds’ future. New Consul General of Ireland to Boston, Fionnuala Quinlan, spoke “on behalf of the grateful govern- ment of Ireland and our people”, and praised the many contributions The Ireland Funds have made to Ireland over the years.
