Spotlight YGK: St. Patrick’s Day weekend edition
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Ale House — St. Patrick’s Day Party
Hey everyone, it’s Ale here. Listen, you and I both know that St. Patrick’s Day is always not as fun as you plan it out to be. Your house gets trashed, your housemate gets a ticket for public urination, and you can’t remember your own name by 3 PM. If you come to Ale, things can’t get THAT bad, you know? Just come here. It’s safe. We have drinks, bathrooms, food, water, all that good stuff. A shelter. A home. A family. See you there!
