The May/Bealtaine edition of An Gaeilgeoir will come out toward the end of the month. I especially wanted our new subscribers to know things are going a little slowly, so you don't think we forgot about you.
Your faithful editor does his darndest not to let low-priority things, like real life, interfere with his Irish language activities. But a combination of travel and wonker business projects, coupled with surprise deadlines, loom so large as to penetrate his usual fog and inspire him to warn of the late delivery now, instead of having people spending most of May wondering why they didn't get their copies as expected.
If you're not aware of An Gaeilgeoir, this is our quarterly eight-page paper newsletter with suggestions (in English) for learning the language, articles on various topics of interest, and puzzles and amusements that use your Irish. Subscriptions are $12 for four issues/year, mailed to you (the old fashioned way!). Visit the An Gaeilgeoir page for more information.
We have scheduled our annual Weekend in Winona at the University of St. Mary's the weekend of July 11-13.
A little patience . . . we're still recovering from April! Later in May we'll have information about the workshop and registration materials available.
We have scheduled our four-week introductory class through St. Paul Community Education, starting in September. This class will allow you to join our regular Monday evening classes.
We'll have information here, of course, in The GaelMinn Gazette, and you'll also see the course listed in your Community Education catalogue. (For more about Community Education, open to everyone -- you don't have to live in St. Paul -- visit our Community Ed page.)
The 2nd Annual Young Irish Musicians' Weekend has been scheduled for June 20-22. While targeted at intermediate (or better) musicians under 25, they have added some classes for beginners this year. And there is additional programming to entertain the adults who come along with their kids.
They've got an information page with lots of details, including a listing of their very distinguished faculty. Last year's event was terrific, and we've little doubt this one will be even better.
