7th Annual Sound Shore Parade Huge Success

Parade Marchers Follow 2018 Grand Marshal "Doc" Kiernan Through the Village of Mamaroneck Celebrating St. Patrick's Day

On a lovely sunny Sunday, the 7th Annual Sound Shore St Patrick’s Day Parade, led by Grand Marshal Raymond “Doc” Kiernan and his chosen Aides, proved to be the best parade yet, as the 2018 event was well represented by organizations from Port Chester to Pelham, from Irish dancers and local girl scout troops to Bag-Pipers and area First Responders.

Celebrating both Irish heritage and the American immigrant experience, the parade was a terrific Westchester family affair and a wonderful salute to our community First Responders. Even though the parade is over, there’s still time to make a donation to the Sound Shore St. Patrick’s Day Parade Scholarship Fund by contacting www.soundshoreparade.com. Scholarships are awarded to local high school students who demonstrate active contribution to Irish community programs, Irish culture, and/or charitable organizations. According to committee member Michael Murphy, interested students can find an application on the Sound Shore Parade website: www.soundshoreparade.com
