The Denver Rocky Mountain Rose of Tralee is a newly incorporated organization in Denver. It was created in hopes of bringing the whole Denver Irish Community together. It is very exciting to have a representative of our great community in Denver. This is a new organization and they are looking for excited volunteers and people who want to have a good time!
The Denver Rocky Mountain Rose of Tralee is proud to announce that our very own Denver Rose, Jessica Lesser, is the first 2013 Rose in the world. Jessica is a local World Champion Irish Step Dancer. She teaches at the Boulder Celtic Steps studio while she attends CU Boulder. She is going to make a fabulous representative for our lively Irish community here in Denver.
To help get Jessica to Ireland in May for the regional finals we are announcing a “Firkin Friday! Denver Rose of Tralee Fundraiser” hosted at the Celtic Tavern LoDo on Friday, February, 22nd starting at 5:30. The evening will kick off with a firkin full of beer while supplies last as well as other great drink specials. There will be Irish entertainment including, Irish Step Dancing, Bagpipes, door prizes, drawings and live music!
