Attending the parade as a spectator
What to bring
If it is a cold day, bring a warm hat, warm gloves, and warm shoes. For a sunny day, you’ll want to bring sunglasses, suntan lotion, and a hat. The parade goes on rain, shine or snow. And of course, it is traditional to be dressed in GREEN (or orange or white - colors of the Irish flag)!
Transportation and Parking
Mass transit is a great way to get in and out to see the parade. A shuttle will run from the Doherty HS parking lot, every 10 minutes or so
between 10 AM and 3 PM - bringing parade participants back to the start of the parade.
