The bash is the 14th annual clan gathering. It brings together a wide range of local lawyers, media types, professionals, drawn from civic, labor and governmental ranks.

The public is invited and encouraged to attend the breakfast and party. As usual, both bar and traditional Irish breakfast service is available.
