St. Patrick's Day Festival

Saturday, March 13, 2010
10am - 5pm
6th and Laurel at Balboa Park

The Irish Congress of Southern California is proud to announce it's annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade.  The theme for this year’s parade is: “Celebrating 30 Years of Community Unity with Special Thanks to our Veterans and Military.”

Over the past 29 years, we have honored educators, athletes, service animals, volunteers, law enforcement and fire professionals, artists, travel and entertainment professionals, and food service employees, to recall a few. We have, indeed, celebrated the unity of our community.

However, that same community owes its very existence, in no small part, to our service veterans and military personnel. Without their sacrifices, we would not enjoy community as we now know it, and we want to say thank you to them.
