St.Patrick's day celebrations have returned to their former glory in Killarney.

At one time the March 17th party was the town's biggest event. Killarney-Turtle Mountain Mayor Rick Pauls says support had dropped off but volunteers and businesses have worked hard to make St.Patrick's day and celebrating Killarney's heritage a priority.

 

 

Linda Kautz chairs the host committee. She was overwhelmed with this year's turnout and is pleased to see so many people supporting what her group is trying to do for the community.

 

 

Mayor Rick Pauls says while the Shamrock Center was buzzing with activities there was a lot of people making it downtown to area businesses. Pauls predicts brighter days ahead for the event.
