On November 6th 2009 in Edmonton, Alberta the 2009 Western Canadian Oireachtas was held. Bringing many dancers from western Canada together to compete. All the dancers in their age categories tried there hardest to qualify for nationals. (open to all ages) Or worlds if you are age 10 and over. Mackenzie and I (Who we're in the same category) Qualified for Nationals. Mackenzie also qualified for Worlds which were held in Scotland. However she decided not to go. Where the Oireachtas is held changes every year. Girls and boys under 13 dance on one day then 14 and above dance on the next. The oireactas is a whole lot of fun!
