Stamford St. Patrick's Day Parade Grand Marshals Announced

Stamford residents Bill and Evon Malloy, the 20th Anniversary St. Patrick’s Day Parade Grand Marshals, have announced that the Connecticut Renaissance Stamford is their charity of choice for 2015.

Every year, the Stamford St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee makes a donation to a charity in the name of the Grand Marshal(s).

Since 1967, Connecticut Renaissance has provided quality substance abuse and mental health treatment to men, women, and adolescents throughout the state of Connecticut. Renaissance has earned the reputation as a leader in Evidence-Based Treatment practices, and continues to break new ground in the areas of positive outcomes, outreach, research, and community involvement.

The Parade and Grand Marshal’s Dinner are funded completely by the private sector and rely heavily on the contributions of individuals and local businesses. Proceeds from the dinner will help support The Malloys charity choice, Connecticut Renaissance Stamford. Proceeds also go toward offsetting the expenses of the parade.

The 20th Anniversary Stamford St. Patrick’s Day Parade takes place rain or shine on Saturday, March 7, at noon. The Grand Marshal’s Dinner is on Friday, March 6, at the Sheraton Stamford Hotel.

For information about the festivities, contact Michael Feighan 203-943-4849.
