~ The Irish Evening at Hidden Valley

Please join us at this Saturday, March 15th as we celebrate the many wonderful customs and great art and music of Ireland. "The Irish Evening at Hidden Valley" has become a wonderful tradition for celebrating St. Patrick's Day in style.

Heartstrings will open the evening at 6:30!

Also featured are the splendid talents of singer John Michael and pianist Tom Lawson. The evening is capped by the Irish step dancers who have been the highlight of several past Irish Evenings at Hidden Valley. They are truly amazing.

The regular pub snacks and no host wine bar will be included.

Please call 659-3115 for a reservation ($35.00 each).

See you on Saturday, March 15th at Hidden Valley!

Sincerely,

Heartstrings
