American Legion Post 373, Baldwinville, March 2026

We have hosted the Flying Irish Dance Troupe three years in row at the Stevens Memorial Library. They're one of our most popular programs. The dancers are incredibly talented and their exuberance translates into a joyful experience for all attendees. Each year the crowd continues to grow as more people hear about them. Mary-Sarah and Tatiana are a pleasure to work with, very professional and flexible to our needs. I highly recommend inviting the Flying Irish to your venue.  

Library Director: Ashburnham Stevens Memorial Library, March 2026

Our Residents were very happy with the performance last night and that I'm so pleased that you were able to make it happen for St. Patrick's Day for us and all of the dancers did a wonderful job!
