Happy Birthday Kathy!

Turning 23 today is the Sweetheart of The Sponsor Area, Her Highness of Hospitality, Kathy Magwire. If you're not one of the lucky few who get up to that lofty sponsor area on Irish Fest weekend (if you'd like to join that elite, contact Keli and become a sponsor), you may not have come in contact with Kathy, because she absolutely refuses to take a break. So here's our Children's Area boss, Shawn Sullivan Warner to tell you a little about the birthday girl:
"Here's to Kathy, our Hostess with the Mostess for the Sponsor Area. Kathy knows how to throw an Irish Fest party for our Sponsors, and has been since we have been at Crown Center. In her spare time, she helps all of the staff with area setup, cleanup and maintenance at the Fest. Kathy is the proud Mom of our KCIF Kid's Club President MacKenzie. Kathy is a joy to work with and we know our Sponsors are in the best hands in her area. Kathy, we raise a Boulevard in your honor. Heres to Kathy, let's wish her our best and thank her for her wonderful efforts."
Well said, Shawn. Hope it's a wonderful day and year, Kathy. And thank you. I can't imagine Irish Fest without you.

I'll certainly hoist one to Kathy! Having the honor of working with Kathy in the Sponsor Area is one of the best jobs I've done for the fest. She's always willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, and never gets riled up. She's a real peach!

Slainte Kathy!

And I can now cross "thanks for sharing the rear end of the cow with me" of my list of things I thought I'd never read on this blog.

Happy birthday Kathy! We will certainly be seeing a lot of each other this year now that I've retired, I'll be in your area as often as I can. That is when my kids don't have me babysitting while they volunteer.
