How "primitive" will camping be? I don't recall seeing anything about porta potties being available near the campsites or festival grounds. Are there plans to have some available or does the park have adequate restrooms?

This is all very exciting. Something to put Greeley back on the map. I have a feeling this event will grow tremendously over the coming years!!! Sounds like a bunch of us Murphy's will be attending. Too bad our dad Charlie wont be able to join us, but I am certain we will all have an irish beer in his honor!!!!

That's great to hear. And just which one of the Murphy's might you be?? So many I can't remember which one was 13.
You know they say if everyone who has ties to Greeley stayed here we'd be bigger then Omaha. I believe it.

Sheila....the 13th Murphy. The "baby" as my dad used to call me. This whole idea is so great. Thanks to you and all involved. I am sure the amount of work is huge committment. I have so many childhood memories in Greeley. I feel somewhat sad when I return, as I dont really know anyone there, but the memories still make me smile and I am blessed for that!!

Sheila how many of your clan plan to be there? Are Jane and Brian going?
By the way I see that ticket prices go up to $20 after Tuesday the 4th. I bought mine on line at the website through Paypal and it worked really quick and easy. They arrived in the mail a couple days later.
I can't wait for this thing!!

I think they should hang up Irish flags all the way down Mainstreet. It would definitley liven up the atmosphere.
