Membership Benefits

In addition to the cultural benefits and social connections, your membership includes:

a subscription to our monthly branch newsletter informing you about our local and regional activities
periodic issues (at least three per year) of Treoir, the official Comhaltas magazine published in Ireland
an official Comhaltas membership card, which entitles you to discounts on admissions to Comhaltas events

We hope you realize the value of being a part of the Comhaltas organization. Your continued membership will reaffirm pride in your heritage and exemplify strong support for traditional Irish music, dance, and culture.

Membership Year

Fiscal Year membership term is November 1 to October 31 each year. Dues for the fiscal year are due and payable by November 1st.

Where the Dues Go

As part of a global organization based in Ireland, our local Comhaltas branch pays a Provincial level assessment to cover the cost of mailing Treoir; the international magazine is one of the benefits of membership in the Comhaltas organization. The Provincial Council handles the importing and mailing of Treoir magazine. While the magazine is now available online, using the US mail is still the most practical method to ensure that all our members receive this magazine dedicated to traditional Irish music.

Newsletter – Receive it your way – Mail or Email

While printing and mailing the branch newsletter is the our biggest expense, we are fortunate to have a strong base of advertisers that help defray the cost of printing and postage. You can help to keep these costs down by subscribing to the monthly newsletter by email. You can make a change at any time in how you receive your newsletter. Members who are currently receiving the paper (mailed) version of the Newsletter and who agree to receive future issues of the Newsletter via email, kindly contact Maureen Woods at mo.woods@comcast.net and let her know.
