The 2013 World Irish Dance Championships were held in Boston this year. Leslie was part of an “8 Hand” Ceili Dance Team from McInerney School in Worcester (which Mary and Leslie have been part of for many years). Because of the intense international competition, expectations were not super high. The girls were mainly excited to get the opportunity to compete in the Worlds. Like the Florida Gulf Coast Basketball Team, they progressed far beyond most expectations. Out of more than 100 international teams, they progressed through 3 rounds and were awarded 16th place! A huge accomplishment and experience for both Leslie and the school. We are proud of her and them! -Bob
