Readers' Choice: St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick’s Day is officially a religious holiday set aside to celebrate St. Patrick, the most commonly recognized patron saint of Ireland. It is recognized universally as a day to celebrate Irish culture.

This year, it will be the last chance Galloway residents have to visit Ireland and Old Lace in the heart of Historic Smithville, as the store will be closing at the end of the month. It won’t be the end of an Irish store’s presence in Smithville, of course, as Out of Ireland continues on in Historic Smithville.

We will announce the winner on Friday.
