Our esteemed Irish Heritage Partner Wild West Irish Tours has kindly supplied us with some new photos of last year's successful ‘Wild West of Ireland: You Won’t Forget Your First Time’ tour giveaway competition!

Member Maureen Kelley-Olson thoroughly enjoyed her trip of a lifetime that we are sure she will not forget!! She was pampered and serenaded with song while being escorted around Ireland’s ‘Wild West’ by Wild West Irish Tours' host and company co-owner Michael Regan Waugh!

The photo above is of Maureen being serenaded by tour guide ‘Martin’ on beautiful Coney Island in County Sligo; an extremely emotional moment for her …

Below, Maureen Kelley-Olson holds The Easter Proclamation -- the Irish Declaration of Independence -- during a solemn and proud moment at the home of 1916 hero Sean Mac Diarmida.

“I was just so full of joy I could hardly take it all in!” said Maureen. All in all, it was a dream come true for her that we are so glad we could provide! We wish to again congratulate Michael, Trish and the rest of the team at Wild West Irish Tours for providing such a wonderful experience for Maureen and helping her experience the trip of her lifetime! The firm's motto is "Expect Great Things in Simple Places!" and we do believe they provided exactly that! And, of course, a special thank you to WOW Airlines for graciously providing the travel to and from Ireland for our competition! 

We couldn’t have done it without you guys!
