Cidre from The Big Apple?

There's a new Breton organization just formed in New York. They are called "BZH New York" or The Association of Bretons and Friends of Brittany in the New York area. Made up of ex-pat Bretons, they organize monthly get togethers, Festou-Noz, a Bastille Day celebration in Manhattan and they are hosting the New York leg (arm?) of the huge "Cyber-FestNoz" on September 22nd, 2007.

Their biggest event to date (and it was REALLY big), was bringing the Breton Bagad "Kevrenn Alre" to Manhattan and Philadelphia for the St. Patrick's weekend (with the Bagad appearing in the NY St. Paddy's Day Parade).

Their website is at www.bzh-ny.org/
