Welcome

Come enjoy this Irish celebration - Kansas Style

For over 30 years, the community of Rush Center has invited you to “Come be Irish for the day!” Join us and see why we say, “There are only two kinds of people in the world, the Irish and those who wish they were.”

Thank you to everyone who made the 2025 event something special.

Looking forward to seeing YOU in Rush Center in March 2026.
