2007 Emerald Dinner

The 2007 Emerald Dinner was held on February 17, 2007, at Seven Bridges Golf Club in Woodridge, Illinois.

Guests enjoyed live Irish music by The Ploughboys, delicious Irish food, a silent auction and raffle, and more!

The 2007 Emerald Dinner raised enough funds to underwrite much of the cost of the St. Patrick's Day Parade, and allowed WSI to donate to St. Baldrick's Foundation, raising funds for children's cancer research.

Dancers from the McNulty School of Irish Dance performed beautifully, with the rapt attention of the audience.

Lynda Reilly and Mary Corrigan worked hard to make sure the Emerald Dinner was a success. Thanks to both!
BlueStack's mix of traditional Irish and modern tunes stirred the guests into dancing the night away.
