SUMMARY:International Women's Day
DESCRIPTION:Your Content Goes Here\nInternational Women’s Day (IWD) is a global holiday celebrated annually on March 8th. IWD gives focus to issues that face women such as gender equality. Spurred on by the universal female suffrage movement\, IWD originated from labor movements. The earliest IWD version recorded was a “Women’s Day” organized in New York City on February 28\, 1909. From these humble beginnings\, it was proposed that “a special Women’s Day” be organized annually. The following year saw the first demonstrations and commemorations of International Women’s Day across Europe. IWD became a mainstream global holiday following its adoption by the United Nations in 1977. \nThis year’s international theme is “Inspire-Inclusion”. Please join us on Friday\, March 8th from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm in the Lakeview Room at The Beltrone Living Center for breakout sessions\, informational tables\, demonstrations and live musical entertainment. As of this printing\, confirmed attendees include Chefs Joan Dembinski and Kizzy Williams\, Capital Cooks co-proprietor Caroline Barrett\, the Albany Women’s Club\, Shaker Heritage Society\, the Friends of Pruyn House\, Attorney Christina Meier\, the Pride Center of the Capital Region\, In Your Own Voices\, the Timeless Tappers\, the Girl Scouts\, The International Center of the Capital Region\, \nTeta Marie’s\, The Albany Women’s Club\, The Half Moon Button Club\, Myan Hands\, My Favorite Things\, Stampin’ Ups\, Annabella Designs as well as a musical performance by “Carmen and Life’s Guilty Pleasures”… There will be raffles\, giveaways and complimentary refreshments. \nThank you to Local 14 Musicians Union and the Meier Law Firm for their support for this event. This celebration is FREE and open to all. For questions and additional information\, \nplease contact Diane at 518-459-2857 ext. 305.

SUMMARY:CSSC’s International Diners Club – For the Love of Food March’s Outing – Irish Anyone?
DESCRIPTION:Join Diane on her next scheduled international excursion to the Parting Glass on Wednesday\, March 8 at 5:30 p.m. (CCSC buses will leave BLC and KTSC at 4:45 p.m.) \nOpening on Saint Patrick’s Day in 1981\, The Parting Glass is said to be the oldest continuously run bar & restaurant in Saratoga Springs. In the 1990s The Parting Glass had the honor of being voted one of the top ten great places to toast the luck of the Irish by USA Today. They derive their name\, “The Parting Glass” from a beautiful song and poem that wishes everyone a safe journey home after having their last drink of the night\, “The Parting Glass”.  \nThe cost of the meal/outing is $39 which will include a buffet of Irish inspired dishes including corned beef & cabbage\, boiled potatoes and carrots\, Irish Shepard’s Pie and homemade Jameson Irish bread pudding. Coffee/tea is also included. The restaurant will put on some drink and beer specials for our group. Bring your dancing shoes\, Celtic music will start at 7:00 p.m. and we plan to listen to a set. \nCSSC Transportation Services are available for those who are unable to drive themselves. \nPlease call Diane at 518-459-2857 ext. 305 for additional information or to reserve your spot.

SUMMARY:March’s Healthy and Local Cooking Class –  Traditional Irish Soda Bread Anyone?
DESCRIPTION:Is there a better bread in the world than a loaf of Irish soda bread\, particularly as we get close to St. Patrick’s Day? Irish soda bread\, made with white flour\, is the cousin to Irish Brown\, which was as common as a pint of Guinness or Smithwick’s Ale. Although today both are equally popular\, brown bread was initially more common because white flour was more expensive. \nJoin us on Tuesday\, March 7\, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon\, when well-known local Chef Harold Qualters will demonstrate the proper way of making delicious Traditional Irish Soda Bread; just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. \nClass will take place at King Thiel Senior Community\, 17 Elks Lane\, with a $5 fee and will include a light lunch. Space is limited and prepayment for the class is required. To make a reservation\, please call Diane at 518-459-2857 ext. 305.

SUMMARY:“How to Defuse a Bomb: The Project Children Story”\,  Feature Documentary About How the Efforts and Persistence of Project Children Forged the Pathway for Peace in Northern Ireland
DESCRIPTION:Colonie Senior Service Centers\, Inc. along with the Irish American Heritage Museum\, the Albany AOH and LAOH\, and the Watervliet AOH are honored to host a meet and greet along with a viewing of “How to Defuse a Bomb: The Project Children Story”\, a powerful feature documentary film that celebrates the unsullied hard work and dedication of the Project Children Charity and one of its founding members\, Denis Mulcahy\, a retired and highly decorated NYPD Bomb Squad Officer who has twice been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The film documents the pursuit of reconciliation in Northern Ireland\, through the medium of its children. Offering over 22\,000 children a six-week summer reprieve in upstate New York from the intrinsic\, sectarian violence of “The Troubles” in Northern Ireland\, this extraordinary tale resonates to all that is good in this world. \nThe event will take place on Wednesday\, March 1 at Colonie Senior Service Center’s Beltrone Living Center\, 6 Winners Circle\, Albany\, and will consist of a meet and greet reception with Denis Mulcahy from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.\, the viewing of the documentary from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. and a question-and-answer period afterward. We are anticipating a large turnout. There is no fee to attend. \nAbout the Film\nNarrated by Liam Neeson and written/directed by Des Henderson\, “How to Defuse a Bomb: The Project Children Story” is an inspiring documentary focusing on the Project Children charity\, whose work aimed at enlightening children of “The Troubles” that a non-violent existence was feasible and peace in Northern Ireland was possible once you embrace the other side. \nThe film hosts interviews from Denis Mulcahy and his brother\, Pat Mulcahy\, who along with others\, founded the charity in 1975. It also offers raw accounts on the experiences of the host families and the now adults\, who participated as kids in the program. The dip back in time to the interview archives from the 1970’s offers powerful accentuation of the impact this program has had on the direction of so many lives. Former US President\, Bill Clinton is also featured in the film\, following Denis’ fundamental role in the work of reconciliation in Northern Ireland\, along-side Mr. Clinton. \n“How to Defuse a Bomb” is a formidable film that tells the authentic story of real people\, whose lives are now changed forever. It is imperative for the world to see this show. Although its predominant focus is on Northern Ireland\, the documentary’s message highlights the need for a cohesive\, visionary approach to surpass the complications of conflict. \nFor questions or additional information\, please contact Diane at (518) 459-2857 ext. 305.
