Pearl Beach Progress Association will present an Irish singalong to celebrate St Patrick’s Day on March 17.
St Patrick was a fifth-century missionary who is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland.
He became a legendary figure by the end of the seventh century and is considered a patron saint of Ireland.
St Patrick’s Day was originally celebrated in Ireland with religious services and feasts.
When Irish immigrants brought St Patrick’s Day traditions to the US, the day evolved into a secular celebration of Irish culture which is now celebrated by many countries including Australia.
The Pearl Beach Singers will continue the tradition with an Irish singalong in the Pearl Beach Memorial Hall starting at 1.30pm.
The community is invited to go along and have some fun and enjoy refreshments.
To get into the spirit wear something green.
