Community Meeting
Join Us for a Community Meeting!
Comunn Feis an Eilein, a beloved community staple since the early 1990s, invites you to join us for an important meeting on Saturday, February 1st at 1pm at the Christmas Island FireHall. For over 30 years, we have been dedicated to teaching, learning, and sharing Gaelic language and culture, especially with youth. Our organization continues to thrive thanks to the passionate involvement of volunteers, many of whom are past students of the Feis eager to give back to the community.
At this meeting, we will brainstorm and discuss exciting plans for Summer 2025 and discuss the various ways you can help. We are seeking volunteers for a variety of roles at our summer events, and we would love to have you involved! Whether you want to lend a hand at events or simply learn more, this is a great opportunity to get involved and make a difference.
In addition to the discussion, we will celebrate last year’s achievements with our current volunteers. Enjoy a light catered lunch and a cup of tea while getting to know our members and learning more about how you can be part of this vibrant community.
Everyone is welcome! We look forward to seeing you there!
