The 2011 Seattle Gaelic Games will be held this Saturday, June 4th, at the playfields at Green Lake Park. Opening ceremonies will start at 8:30am, with the games beginning at 10am.
The games consist of four categories: hurling, camogie, ladies’ football, and men’s football. Expect crowds, as teams come from all over to participate, including our very own Seattle Gaels. Two of this year’s sponsors are Robeks Juice and Tacos Guaymas, located across the street from the playfields. Coupons for both will be available at the games information booth.
An afterparty will be held at Finn MacCools in the U-District, beginning at 7pm. Trophies will be presented, and there will be live music to celebrate. Finn MacCools is located at 4217 University Way NE.
