Heck yea there's a committee! And we have been working on this for a while now. Yep we are still planning a get together at Classic Celtic Festival in Bethlehem, Pa for 2008
We are gonna need people for all types of things so those that want to help we will gladly put you to work!
I'll be at Bethlehem each September, even if nobody else shows up. It's still the best and biggest Celtic Fest in North America. I already have my room reserved for this year. I think some of last years crew is coming to party again.
Nothing set on the web page yet, http://www.celticfest.org/ but I do know that The Barley Boys are playing there this year. The page should be updated soon.
Okay, I just finished reading all 46 pages of this thread and I'm in too!! (Depending on how far it is from Nebraska!) If it's not overly far and not overly expensive I will be there and will also be happy to help out in any way I can!

What a great idea you guys. Would love to join in on it but Im in Florida. Can I room with somebody? But hey I will be done with college by then. Hope to see everyone.
You better still be alive JP!! You best not be 'working yourself to death'!!! It just wouldn't be the same without you!!
I'm sure there will be plenty of people to room with Celtic cat! I myself will probably be bringing a tent and camping out (My children LOVE to camp, they even make me put their tent up in the living room occasionally!!) so that might be an idea you could consider also!
We didn't take many pictures of the bands this year because we didn't go to some of the shows. The band line-up this year was rather sub-par. We spent more time hanging with the vendors.

Hi y'all, I just stumbled upon this topic... A get-together on 2008 in PA?? You know what, I might actually be able to make that one! My new daughter-in-law's family lives in PA around the Nescopek/Berwick area. This might be a good excuse for her to go back home to visit her family and for me to tag along too. Who knows!
There is also a chance that by next autumn, my son & daughter-in-law may move to PA themselves so she can go to graduate school in Philly or perhaps Boston. I get so sad at the thought of them moving that far away from us here in Georgia, but bless her heart the girl has an amazing opera voice and I just keep thinking that she needs to pursue this... but maybe she can go to graduate school in Georgia, maybe please??? We'll see.
Keep us informed about the get-together then, I'll keep checking here for updates.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king..."
I too have just stumbled onto this topic, and It seems like a wonderful idea. I hope that it actually happens!!!!
When anyone has ideas(I can't think myself right now) they should post in this topic so it doesn't get lost!!!!!!

WE CAN'T CHANGE WHAT WE HAVE DONE.... BUT ONLY TAKE A LESSON FROM EACH EXPERIENCE AND MAKE THE MOST OF EACH MINUTE THAT WE HAVE LEFT AND TELL OURELVES THAT IT IS OK TO LIVE, LAUGH AND CRY..... PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ALL WORK TOGETHER TO GIVE US WHAT WE CAN AND SHOULD EXPERIENCE AND WE NEED TO CHERISH ALL OF THE TIME THAT WE SPEND WITH OURSELVES AND OTHERS MAKING THE MOST OF THE SPECIAL MEMORIES THAT ARE OURS.. AND THE ONES THAT WE HAVE YET TO CREATE WITH THE PEOPLE THAT WE HAVEN'T MET!!!!![/SIZE]
