“It’s so much fun we don’t need booze,” explained Jack Kilroy, President of the nonprofit Sober Seventeenth, Inc. “But seriously, we help people in recovery prevent relapse by providing a counterpoint to the pervasive drunken Irish stereotype. Plus, we give families a chance to show their children authentic Irish culture meant to honor the patron saint of Ireland, away from the sea of alcohol that has tradi-tionally flooded the day. “We’re so pleased to be partnering with Sober Sev-enteen”, said Thomas D. Stuber, President & CEO of The LCADA Way. “The night is sure to be a great time for our customers, families and their friends.” The event showcased County Mayo’s number one sing-

er James Kilbane, (famous for his 2005 “You’re a Star” televised competition), The McNamaras from Cleveland, performing traditional Irish tunes on flute, tin whistle, and fiddle, 13-year-old bagpipe prodigy Reece Colovini, the youngest piper in the

history of the 87th Cleve-land Pipe Band founded in 1987, and the Burke School of Irish Dance. Kid’s fun included shamrock-face painting and a coloring contest judged by Sherry Glass of the Lorain County Juvenile Court. The evening’s entertainers were introduced by Judge William T. McGinty of the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas. A saintly serving of Irish and international favorites for every taste was also proffered.

The North Coast Chamber of Com-merce hosted the annual State of Cities Luncheon at Tom’s Country Place in Avon the afternoon of March 14. Featuring the Mayors of Avon, Avon Lake, Sheffield and Sheffield Lake, the atti-tude of gratitude was most prevalent in the addresses from each community mayor. Avon Mayor Bryan Jensen set the tone as - unbeknownst to the several hundred guests in attendance - he served lunch dis-guised as a waiter! He took to the podium to the aston-ishment of guests who failed to recognize him as he served and cleared tables. He then delivered his message of embracing diversity by turning his talk over to Avon High students, who produced a video of community highlights. “I think the kids get it right,” said

Mayor Jensen. “I think that if we, as adults, could get out of the way of our children, we’d find out that they have it right and we have it wrong and that we could together all celebrate our differences.” For a look at the outstanding work of the Avon High ‘Eagle News Network,’ visit the 2019 Avon State of the City news broadcast posted at CityofAvon.com and TheVillagerNewspaper.com. “I’d like everybody to remember that we are one nation, under God - including community - indivisible, with liberty and justice for all,” says Mayor Jensen in his personal remarks towards the end of the video. Thanks also to the Avon High Drama Club for helping Mayor Jensen work up his waiter look! Mayor Jensen: By celebrating

differences and walking in another’s shoes, the world would be a better place!
