Celtic Adventure in NC

Celtic Adventure in NC

We have the Celts to thank for our corn whiskey, fiery gospel, old time music, and peculiar grammar. While they weren't the only Europeans to migrate to the Appalachian South, they seem to have left the biggest mark. I suppose it's no wonder. Most of them were Scots-Irish, a notoriously stubborn people, deep in their faith and quick to fight. Before they succumbed to someone else's ways, they were sure as hell going to assert their own.
Visits Asheville February 4-6, and you can get to know your spirited celtic roots. Grove Park Inn is once again hosting a Celtic Adventure Weekend. There will be all sorts of celtic activities, including Irish dance demonstrations and workshops, scavenger hunts, and sheepdog trials demonstrations. The musical line-up, however, is the real highlight:
