Shawnee, KS, St. Patrick’s Day Parade
The Shawnee St. Patrick’s Day Parade takes place on the Sunday before St Patrick’s Day, which is March 11, 2007.
This year’s parade is a celebration of “25 Years of Good Green Fun”. It begins at 1:00pm and travels east on Johnson Drive from Monrovia to Nieman Road.
Parade t-shirts and hats will be on sale along the parade route and at Parade HQ the week before the parade.
Grand Marshall this year in Shawnee is Mary Brayton, and a very grand marshall she is too.
Latest reports on the Irish American Club of Shawnee website express a need for some volunteers for groovy things like carrying flags and all sorts of little jobs.
