IRISH NIGHT AT EATON CORNER
Friday evening , the Bulwer Community Center went Irish green as the Eaton Corner Museum held their annual Irish Night . A full list of musicians were on tap to entertain , with close to 100 people in attendance . The entertainers included Marlene Lowry , Janice Lowry , Kendra Parnell , David McBurney , Ron Haseltine , The Drew Family , The Self-Ordained Professors , and many more . This Irish Night even had a group from Asbestos , Que . This group certainly traveled a long way to perform at the show .
The show kicked off at 7 p . m . sharp with Sharon Moore , president of the Eaton Corner Museum , welcoming all to their special show . It was then time to let the good times roll . The evening wound up at around 11 p . m . with all heading home on a cold snowy night , another huge success for the Eaton Corner Museum . This is a small but mighty museum that is growing every day . It houses local history and they are more than happy to show it to all who visit .
