<p>We are pleased to honor the Feis committee of the Nassau County Board of the Ancient Order of Hibernians.  The A.O.H.

<p>Tickets for the event are $65.00 and may be purchased by sending the tear-off below with a check before February 29, 2011.  Due to the support this luncheon has received in prior years, an early response is suggested to guarantee seating.</p>
<p>In the true Irish spirit of friendship and hospitality the event is open to all and one need not be Irish or in government to attend.</p>
<p>We look forward to seeing you on March 9, 2012.</p>
