Shamrock is not closing but will stay open under new management

By Staff | May 22, 2009

The Shamrock Irish Pub is not closing as reported in the Beach Bulletin, according to owner Mike Von Plinsky.

Clarke Young, who had been leasing the business from Von Plinsky, misinformed Editor Melissa Schneider of Bulletin newspaper about the closing and the fact that he called himself the owner. According to Von Plinsky, there also will be no sale of the Shamrock’s belongings as Clark stated.

The erroneous story of the pub closing was in the May 22 Bulletin.

Young’s business lease runs out Saturday at midnight.

Though it is not shutting down, Von Plinsky did say the pub is closing for a few days for renovations.

“We will reopen next Thursday (May 28) under new management,” he said. “The ownership group is taking back control of the property. We look forward to re-opening with a variety of repairs, new chairs and new tables.”

Von Plinsky was recently applauded in a Beach Observer letter by the FMB Civic Association for cleaning up the noise and garbage problems at the pub.
