The 2008 Elizabeth Celtic Festival
Non-Profit Community Organization Involvement
We're proud to be part of this community, and to involve and benefit community organizations.
In the last few years, we've had groups like the Running Creek PTCO raised funds and awareness at
this Celtic Festival, as well as the Elizabeth High School Art Club.
In connection with the Celtic Festival, the Elizabeth High School Boys Golf Team hosted a "Celtic Golf Tournament"
at Spring Valley Golf Course in 2006.

in their location for this year's Elizabeth Celtic Festival along "Aberdeen Lane"
(the grass will be mowed at Festival time). They were here last year, promoting their group, and
are nice people to talk to.
From their website:
The Elizabethan Tudors is our newest Chapter and welcomes ladies from Parker, Elizabeth, Kiowa,
Castle Rock, and the surrounding communities. The ladies in this Chapter almost immediately became
active in their community. One of their projects is to create and sew cloth bags to hold a variety
of toiletries that will then be given to the Women's Crisis Center. Most of the toiletries have
been collected by members while traveling. Some member's are involved with the Needle Arts Guild
so are busy knitting and crocheting hats, bootees, shawls and baby blankets for the Premature Baby
unit at the Parker Adventist Hospital.
This Chapter usually meets on the third Sunday of each month however it is best to call the Regent,
Jacqui Colby at 303-683-7354 for information on when and where their next meeting will be held.
Come visit them, you will be given a warm welcome and a good cup of tea.
Animal Rescue Organizations are listed in the
"Animals of the British Isles" area.
