Our house concert, with the Lyon Street Celtic Band, was a great success!
The music was delightful; the audience was enthusiastic
and the turn-out was excellent.
Audience members were given an opportunity to donate
 to the Concert Hall Fund, and a total of $215 was collected.
The concert was an item for which Paul was the successful bidder
during the OCMS On-Line Auction. We were delighted with the results,
and happy to be able to further support the concert hall fund-raising efforts.
Sincerely,

I want to thank you and the members of The Lyon Street Celtic Band
for performing at the 2006 Ottawa Race Weekend.
 Once again the participants and spectators really appreciated
 the talent and enthusiasm you provided during the marathon events.
This year Ottawa Race Weekend attracted nearly 30,000 runners
 and again raised more than $500,000 for the Ottawa Hospital.
Please join us again in 2007.

Thank you so much for your music and enthusiasm.
  It was such a great location too.  I was getting pretty tired
 and was looking forward to seeing your band.
  Lucie and I were thrilled to see you,
 and it definitely gave us a boost of energy.
The music helps the Km's tick by a little faster. 
It was a great run; it felt so nice to be a part of it.

I have to say that the music and entertainment
 along the course was inspiring. 
I LOVED the Celtic band right at the beginning
and the belly dancers sure made an impact -
I know I felt a little less chilly after seeing what they were wearing! 
For a minute I imagined I was in a warmer climate. 
Thank you to you and your colleagues for making
my first ½ a very enjoyable (if that's possible) experience,
and for Rob who's last marathon was in 1994,
it rekindled his love of the event.  Volunteers were amazing
and the vibe was brilliant.  Well done.

I just wanted to tell you how much Roslyn and I thoroughly enjoyed the music of the Lyon Street Celtic Band recently.
Not only was the music captivating, but it was easy
to get into as we found ourselves clapping, tapping and moving
 along with the band... and we were still sitting!  
We found the personalities of the group warm and inviting, and you
made us feel very comfortable to sing along - as best we could.
We look forward to bringing our friends to your next appearance
 and have them experience your special brand of music and entertainment. “ Thanks for the memories.”
