The Circle City Irish Festival is coming up Friday and Saturday, September 18–19, and Scecina is excited to once again be part of the fun!

Scecina has a long history of supporting the festival by providing volunteers, and we’re looking for Crusaders of all ages to help continue that tradition. Volunteer shifts are just two hours, and volunteers receive a festival T-shirt and are welcome to stay and enjoy the festival after their shift.

Adults who would like to volunteer can sign up directly through the Circle City Irish Fest website.

Scecina students who would like to volunteer and receive service hours should contact Mr. Hegarty at jhegarty@scecina.org.

Give a little time, support a great community event, and then stick around for some Irish fun!

Junior and Senior young men are invited to join the Bishop Brute College Seminary Community for Castle Nights. These nights are held about once a month and are a chance for high school guys to pray, eat, and talk with our college seminarians!
