The New Castle County Irish Society presents the “Erin Award” each year to a member to honor his or her dedication and service within our Club. The “Erin Award” for 2024 has been awarded to Holly Gray for her dedication and contribution to the promotion of Irish Heritage and Culture. Holly has been a member of the NCCIS for many years. She presently serves as Treasurer on our Board. She also serves as a bartender and helps manage our hall. Previously, Holly served as a member of the Board and helped with the Fest Ad Book. She is always ready to help out whether it is running errands or accommodating clients with set-up times. We recognize and thank Holly for her commitment to the New Castle County Irish Society! The “Erin Award” plaque was presented to Holly at our After Parade Party on March 9, 2024.
