7:56 am [fir_a_bhata]	Local gathering Im wondering if anyone would be interested in something a little more f2f and regular than posting here or on email lists. With my second child on the way I'm becoming more and more interested in being part of a wider community and online stuff just doesn't cut it. Traffic on this board seems a bit slow so anyone who is interested, please feel to write me at fir_a_bhata@yahoo.com (Comment on this)

8:10 am [fir_a_bhata]	language lessons Hi all... Leaving aside the Rosetta Stone software I'm more or less working with, I'm wondering if any of you know of good language tutors in the Chicago area. John (1 Comment |Comment on this)

2:42 am [caitriona_nnc]	Chicago parade - Save Tara contingent Chicago's Irish Freedom Committee is inviting all those who want to protest the destruction of Tara to march with them in Saturday's Downtown Chicago St. Patrick's Day parade. More Info If I were in the city for this, I'd make an exception to my usual avoidance of the parade. Go Chicago Celts! (4 Comments |Comment on this)

5:10 pm [caitriona_nnc]	What's everybody doing this summer? So, anyone planning on attending any Irish festivals, Highland games, Ren faires or Pagan gatherings this summer? What's the Celtic scene like in Chicagoland these days? Announce any events you're attending on this board and find other CRs to connect with. I don't have plans to be in the Midwest this summer, myself, but I know there are others in IL who are looking to connect with people. So speak up and help each other out, OK? (Comment on this)

8:26 am [amiras]	Ren. Faire It's been quite a while since the last post, so I thought I would pipe up and say hello. My family is attending the faire this weekend, mostly to go to Thistle Croft to see other methods of spinning. Is anyone else going to be attending this season? We're local- about a ten minute drive so we'll be out there most weekends, toddler in tow. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:48 am [fionnualamc]	Just checking in Is everyone still ok and no one's melted into a puddle of goo? I just thought I'd check since there hasn't been much, ok, no activity over here for a little while. Ren. Faire has begun. Argh. We lost five people over the weekend due to the heat. They'll be fine and back up this weekend. Geez, it's not THAT hot yet. Wait until this weekend. They'll be dropping like flies. I say this not with glee, but experience. There have been days when I was one of the brave, insane few still standing. On the Celtic note....I've been enjoying the Tain (Kinsella) and tying up my tongue on all those wonderful Irish names. I'm glad I took a semester of Gaelic some years ago. Don't melt! Fionnuala Mc Current Mood: crazy (4 Comments |Comment on this)

2:07 pm [prophet_maid]	Intro Dia Dhuit! I'm a long-time Celtic pagan (not sure yet if I truly qualify as CR) originally from the suburbs but currently going to school in Urbana. I'm studying Irish (Cois Fhairrge dialect) in my free time, and am formally a history student with a minor in French. I hope to go to grad school for Celtic Lit/Lang or Medieval Irish History. Not sure what else to say, considering I am the 2nd member of this community. So, hi! (4 Comments |Comment on this)
