Parade President, 2024
President’s Message
Cead Mile Failte!
I am incredibly honored to serve as President of the 2024 Holyoke St. Patrick’s Parade! I’m proud of the positive cultural and economic impact that the St. Patrick’s Committee of Holyoke has had in our community for 70+ years. I promise to do my best to uphold that legacy.
The annual Holyoke St. Patrick’s Road Race and Parade may occur one weekend out of the year, but it takes a year’s-worth of planning and fundraising by our hard-working committee members to make it all happen. This Committee is truly the most dedicated group of volunteers and we can’t wait to present Parade weekend to you March 16-17, 2024!
Leading up to Parade Weekend are several fun and family-friendly events. Please visit the Calendar of Events and consider joining us! Over the next several months, we will also be announcing our award winners who will be leading the Parade - please bookmark the Committee website to stay posted on all our updates!
My husband, Frank, and our children Frankie, Charlotte, Eloise, and Harry and I can’t wait to see everyone throughout the streets of Holyoke during “Homecoming Weekend” 2024!
