The New Castle Count
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 2020 has been awarded to George and Eleanor Williams for their dedication and contribution to the promotion of Irish Heritage and
Culture. They have been dedicated volunteers
for our Irish Society. For many years George
has donated one of his cars to drive the Erin Award winner in the St. Patrick Day
parade. This year his son will drive them
in the parade. Eleanor is one of our
Irish dancers who attend dance class every Wednesday night at the club. She is also a baker who donates wonderful
bake goods for our Irish Festival and St. Patrick Day Dinner. They both volunteer their time to help decorate
our hall for whatever event we might have. George and Eleanor are both here to promote
Irish culture and this is the motto of our Irish Society. Congratulations, George and Eleanor, and thank you
for all you do for our Irish Society. Since the St. Patrick’s
Day Parade was canceled The Erin Award plaque will be presented to them at a later date. Congratulations, George and Eleanor, and again thank you for your time and dedication to the Irish Society.
