Over 100 people clapped along to Irish beats and dances Saturday night during the 41st Annual St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Dance at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Newhall.

There was Irish music, camaraderie and plenty of drink to go around—all in honor of Saint Patrick’s Day which is on March 17.

For 41 years, The Knights of Columbus have organized this party, as Jay Fithian, the Grand Knight of Knights of Columbus Santa Clarita Council 6016, pointed out.

“I’m proud that these guys can keep it going that long,” he said.
