BIOS for 2012-2013 IHSM Election

PRESIDENT - Nominee for President, Marty Hardiman

I am running for President of the Irish Heritage Society for the 2012 / 2013 term year.

I am Co-Founder of the Irish Heritage Society as well as Co-Founder of the very successful Milford Irish Festival held each September. I have held the office of Vice President working with various committees within the club. I am still very active with the successful Tara Theater Company as a producer and director.

I have been very active in the Milford community since moving here in late 1973, serving on numerous elected positions as well as volunteering throughout our community. I have chaired the Milford Saint Patrick's Day Parade Committee since 1997. I am currently retired from the Milford Board of Education after serving as a Para-Educator with our special needs students for over 20 years. All of this experience has allowed to understand the needs of our citizens and given me contacts to try and meet these needs.

I would like to continue serving you and moving this club forward in promoting Irish Culture and Heritage as your President.

Thank you.

VICE-PRESIDENT -Nominee for Vice-President, Jennifer Hussey

I am running again for the position of Vice President for the 2012-2013 year. I’ve been Vice-President for the past term 2011-2012. In addition, I’ve held the position of Secretary for two terms from 2009-2011. I am also the Chairperson of the Children’s activities with both the annual festival and the children‘s activities through out the year. I have proven myself to be honest, trustworthy and competent in holding an Officer Position with this club. My Irish heritage has always been a part of my family upbringing; I have Irish roots on both my maternal and paternal sides. As Vice President I hope to work closely with the President and other members of the Executive Board in helping this organization to move forward and promote Irish heritage through-out the community.

Professionally, I’ve been a Paralegal and Notary Public for 20 years with experience in a variety of practice areas. I own a Massage Therapy business here in Milford and I also served on the Board of Directors of the Rollers Meadow Condo Association as Secretary for 4 years from 2008 to 2011.

I am a 3rd Generation Milford Resident with Irish Heritage on both sides of my family (Wexford & Cork) and as such have a vested interest in this community and am interested in sharing our heritage with our wider Irish Community.

SERGEANT AT ARMS –

Nominee for Sergeant at Arms, Dennis Manzi

Nominee for Sergeant at Arms, Ed Mead

Nominee for Sergeant at Arms, Ed McEnerney

Hello, my name is Edward Foley McEnerney. I am running for the position of Sergeant at Arms. Though I believe this should be a two man position I, threw my hat in the ring. I wish Dennis McNamara the best and hope they vote us both in.

I am a charter member of the club and was there for the inception with Marty Hardiman and my friend and brother Chris McEnerney.

I have worked tirelessly for this club and where we are now. I have been Parade Coordinator for the past, o jeez I, don’t know 5 years let’s say. We won numerous awards in this time twice in both New Haven and Mystic. Yonkers NY, we won the Monsieur Foley Award for best Marching Unit. I am currently co chair of the activities committee and would love to see more activities with fewer restrictions, face it we are all adults here.

I have been actively in the festival in a way most do not know. Securing the stage and set up, toilets, cleanliness of them. The Ice Cream Truck. Thanks to the great volunteers from the Nelson Clan.

I have been involved with the picnics, Christmas parties, Irish dinners and I will stop here.

The bottom line is, I have put in so much to this club it is part of me as it is to my brother Chris. I would love to see all of us go forward and get a club house in harmony. I will repeat that the Sergeant at Arms Position should be a two man job, and those who have done it I believe will agree.

In closing I am the sixth child to Stuart J. McEnerney and Mary G. Foley. Thank You all for your support in all are Irish activities. Kathy, Eileen, Lynn, Jean, Jimmie, Chris, and Stuart. My nephews Celtic Glen, Ollie and Charlie you and Uncle Chris rock. Hope you play Election Day.

Love you All, Peace.

Edward F. McEnerney

TRUSTEE - Nominee for First Year Trustee, Joe Burton

I have been a member of the Irish Heritage Society since 2008, joining after attending that year’s Irish Festival. Professionally, I have worked for a number of years in the insurance and risk management field. For the past 20 years, I have worked with a company specializing in providing insurance services to churches, schools, social service agencies and other religious organizations. I have experience working with non-profit entities, and understand their unique risks and challenges.

I hope to contribute to and give back to this organization that I have grown to enjoy in my short time as a member. My immediate goal is to help all members understand the importance of their contribution and participation in the ongoing activities and charitable works of the Society. Longer term, I would like to work with the Society’s officers to set clear objectives for the short and long term, and help communicate these objectives to the members.

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to serve all of you.

Irish Round Table, Tues 5/15, 7:30 (other info, too) (by Maureen Moore, published Thursday, 10 May 2012 00:00)
Irish Round Table, Program for Tuesday May 15^th, 7:30 pm

Ogham Art, Ancient Irish Writing

Guest presenters: Chris & Colleen Conway

Knights of St. Patrick — 1533 State St.— New Haven

Free and open to the public.

Our ancestors in the era A.D. 200-400 used the latest technology available when it came to messaging. They sensibly put to use the many rocks that abound in the Irish countryside. It was “stone-on-stone” technology, says Chris Conway, who with his wife Colleen will introduce us to the story of the earliest written language of Ireland at the May Irish History Round Table meeting. Chris learned about ogham, which is pronounced “o’-hem,” while a student at Trinity College in Dublin in the 1990s. In 2010, he and Colleen started an online business featuring the use of ogham in such gifts as prints, stationery and jewelry. At the meeting, he will present an overview of the origin and uses of ogham, including theories that examples of ogham are to be found in the United States. Colleen will explain the design and incorporation of ogham into modern day items. The Conways will display the items they have created.Please join us for this journey back to the customs of ancient Ireland. The Conways were a new vendor for our Irish festival in 2011. For a preview check www.OghamArt.com

Invitation from John Whelan and Comhaltas 5/17/12 (by Maureen Moore, published Wednesday, 02 May 2012 00:00)

P.V. O’Donnell CCE is pleased to announce that our guest on Thursday, May 17th will be uilleann piper Jerry O’Sullivan.

You are invited to join us at St. Gabriel Parish Hall, 26 Broadway, Milford, CT. As always, all are welcome, admission is free, free refreshments. BYOB. Slow session starts at 7:30

Jerry O'Sullivan has been widely hailed as America's premier uilleann piper. His reputation for technical and melodic mastery of the instrument, an Irish bagpipe known for its subtlety and expression, is unsurpassed in the United States, and is demanding considerable attention overseas. Jerry is also widely recorded on the tin whistle, the low whistle, the Highland Pipes and the Scottish smallpipes.

Jerry has appeared on more than 90 albums and has performed or recorded with artists such as The Boston Pops, Don Henley, Paul Winter, James Galway, Dolly Parton, The Colorado Symphony Orchestra, The Nashville Symphony Orchestra, Eileen Ivers, and many others. He was a featured soloist on Paul Winter's GRAMMY winning album, Celtic Solstice (Living Music, 1999). His first two solo albums, The Gift (Shanachie,1998), and The Invasion (Green Linnet, 1987) have both received critical acclaim, quickly finding their way to the top of a number of "best albums of the year" lists. Jerry has released a solo album, O'Sullivan Meets O'Farrell (Jerry O'Sullivan Music, 2005), which features music from the 200 year old O'Farrell tutor and tune collections. Most recently he has released the much anticipated O'Sullivan Meets O'Farrell (Volume II.) ( Jerry O'Sullivan Music 2010.) Jerry has also recorded a number of film soundtracks including From Shore to Shore, The Long Journey Home, Far and Away, Africans in America, and Out of Ireland, and has appeared on numerous television commercials.
