Special rules in place for this year’s Burns Supper
Folks,
first, thanks for your patience with the sudden changes of venue. It was a wild week for the Council, recovering from the loss of TWO venues. We are grateful to the city of Shueyville for stepping into the breach!
But…well, Shueyville is a government, and government facilities have rules. Here’s the run-down:
- Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited anywhere in the Community Center, including surrounding property. If this rule is broken, we will lose our security deposit.
- Hard liquor is not permitted, for the same reason — government property. We have arranged to allow beer and wine at this event (at some expense…be sure to thank the Council in general and Lynne in particular).
- We can have whiskey as a raffle prize, but the bottle must remain unopened. We will likely stow the bottles somewhere and have a stand-in of sorts at the actual raffle table.
Thanks!

Burns 2021 Online ONLY
Due to damage done to Glovik Hall at St Wenceslaus (and the ongoing pandemic, of course), there will be no in-person Burns Supper in 2021. Even if we manage to scrounge a new venue, we’d not be able to manage a buffet-style dinner. But we’ll have some online events! See the Burns Supper page for details as they are posted.

CelticFest
Getting some questions about our festival so, if you missed previous statements about it, it bears repeating that the group has decided not to continue with further festivals. While unfortunate, it was a decision based on many factors and decided upon by our council. We will still continue to promote our annual Burns Dinners and encourage fun gatherings throughout the year.
