2008 Worcester Saint Patrick's Day Parade March 9th, 2008
Mill Street, Worcester - The 24th annual St. Patrick's Day Parade celebrates the Irish of Central Massachusetts, who began settling in the Worcester area as early as 1718. In 1825 Irish immigrants came to Worcester to build the city's canals and roadways, and the community flourished thereafter. (Noon) 508 755-1855.Our volunteer committee has been working tirelessly to achieve this celebration of our Irish American Tradition.  May this bring you laughter, lift your spirits and perhaps bring out the child in all of you.

The Worcester County St. Patrick’s Parade Committee is a non-profit (503c) organization dedicated to a safe, family oriented parade.  We also promote a year round “Parade” presence in other community events.  All of the events we sponsor, including the Parade, are paid for by individual donations, corporate sponsorship, and fundraising activities put on by the parade committee. This funding is important, but it takes the hard work of a 100% volunteer organization to put on the Parade.  If you are interested in joining the Committee, becoming a corporate sponsor or giving a tax-deductible donation please contact the committee at its above e-mail address, call Leo Quinn at 508.753.7187 or Wayne Griffin 508.755.1855.Visit our friends @  http://www.stpatsparade.com/.
