                            Although Patrick's Cove consists of 71 people, it is not
                            unusual to hear the stories of long ago when the everybody
                            would get together and have a old fashion house party. I can
                            just imagine Mr. Patrick McGrath, now deceased, playing the
                            accordian and singing until dawn, while people like
                            Mr. Patrick McGrath  entertained everybody by doing
                            the traditional Newfoundland step dance. While Mr. Patrick
                            (Mr.Patsy) Judge played the tin whislte in the background.
                            Now as years has passed, we no longer have the
                            traditional tin whistle,  or the step dance,  but I assure you
                            that the people  from Patrick's Cove always
                            has a good time.   We still have the house parties, but now
                            we have the acoustic guitar normally played by Tracy
                            McGrath, the accordian played by Mrs. Nellie McGrath and
                            the spoons played by Derek McGrath.  There are also
                            Newfoundland songs sang through out the night, with a dance
                            or two to follow.  Not only do the people in Patrick's Cove
                            have house parties they also have darts and cards.   On
                            Monday nights people from all over  the shore go to Patrick's
                            Cove to have a good game of darts to pass away time.  On
                            the weekends a crowd gets together to have a fun game of
                            cards.

                            As you can see the entertainment still lives in the small
                            community of Patrick's Cove.
