In The Country Dance Book, by Beth Tolman and Ralph Page, you'll find a chapter
entitled "Thanks to the Irish." It includes St. Patrick's Day in the Morning (a
48 bar dance), Larry O'Gaff, and, of course, Rory O'More.
Do you want to include a singing square? The Lloyd Shaw Foundation has complete
instructions for Four Leaf Clover on its website:

It's a simple dance that could be used in lots of settings, and I bet you'll get
dancers joining in on the refrain.
