Every year the Maryland Irish Festival honors our fallen heroes. This year, the 2023 Portz's Pub Honorees are Lt. Paul Butrim FFPM, acting Lt. Kelsey Sadler FFPM   These brave first responders lost their lives fighting a fire in an abandoned row home in Baltimore City in January 2022.   Portz's Pub is named in honor of Officer Tommy Portz, a Baltimore Police Officer who died in the line of duty. Each year we honor a new hero and welcome their f had together as we honor the ultimate sacrifice of these heroes.  All tips received at Portz's Pub, located in the South Hall, will be donated to a charity of the families' choosing. Please stop by and hoist a pint to Paul, Kelsey, and  The 49TH ANNUAL MARYLAND IRISH FESTIVAL is November 10-12 at the Maryland State Fairgrounds Cow Palace in Timonium, MD.   #IrishFestival #MDIrishFestival #FallenHeroes #FFPM #PortzsPub
