Beannachtai na Féile Pádraig ar chlann mhór dhomhanda na nGael, sa bhaile agus ar fud na cruinne, ar ár lá náisiúnta ceiliúrtha féin. My best wishes to everyone who is celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day 2011. All across the world, on this our famous national day, Irish people and their friends join in joyful, fun-filled celebrations of our great heritage and fascinating culture. It’s a day that reminds us of the enduring solidarity of the global Irish family, the strength it gives us and the pride. Beset as we are by economic difficulties, we take hope and inspiration from past problems transcended, from the peace which is growing in our land and from the depths of courage and generosity which underpin the rich community and civic life we enjoy. We know St Patrick was an immigrant but he was also a volunteer. It is volunteers at home and abroad who not only fly the flag for Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day but, all year round, build up and sustain a culture of generosity that enriches life in so many different ways. They are the backbone of our country and they are its heart and its soul. On the 17th March, these volunteers will mobilise under the banner of St. Patrick in a national and international showcase of the indomitable Irish – especially, the volunteering Irish at their very best. Then it will be back to the committees, the fundraising, the planning, the helping and the daily turning up which are the stock-in-trade of the volunteer. In this year with its special focus on volunteering and on this day of parades, music, dance and colourful spectacle which is so reliant on volunteers, I send my warmest wishes and thanks to all who organise and participate in this great global festival. May you have a very happy and very special Saint Patrick’s Day 2011. MARY McALEESE PRESIDENT OF IRELAND MARCH, 2011
