North Texas Irish Festival 2005  
March 5th & 6th, 2005  
 

An Irish gig and a toast of Guinness to our volunteers who brought the GU booth alive at the 2005 North Texas Irish Festival (NTIF). Thank You ever so much for sharing about greyhound adoption during the record-setting festival. What? You don't know who you are? Well, read on...

Also, a greycious "RoooRooo" to Carmon Deyo and Mike Dibble of Black Horse Design for their generous donation to GU. Each year, Carmon and Mike donate a portion of their proceeds from the NTIF to greyhound rescue groups. ("RoooRooo" is greyhound-speak for "We appreciate you.")

According to the official Web site, the 2005 NTIF set an all-time record between 37,000 and 39,000 attendees! Think of how many hands touched a greyhound. See, don't you wish you were there?
