About our logo
"Some Society members have been asking about the design of our logo. Many ideas were considered and after some
debate we combined several into one design. The badge shaped design contains the Irish Flag with the map of Minnesota
in the middle. Within the map is embossed an Irish Harp which is the national symbol of Ireland-not the shamrock.
The design across the top is taken from the Claddaugh ring which symbolizes friendship, charity and loyalty..."

they deserve our sincerest thanks.
