Thomas Byrne to Lead Greenwich Parade

Pic of Day: Thomas Byrne was installed as the Grand Marshal of the 48th annual Greenwich St. Patrick’s Parade by the Greenwich Hibernian Association on Saturday evening, March 2, at the organization’s annual St. Patrick’s dinner dance. The Parade will be held on Sunday March 17th at 2 p.m. Mr. Byrne was presented his Grand Marshal sash by Greenwich Hibernian President Haydn O’Shea and last year’s Grand Marshal Kevin McFadden in front of a sell out crowd of approximately 150 people. The Greenwich Hibernian Association anticipates a large parade this year with at least 13 bands and many community organizations and police and fire departments participating. The parade will start out at Greenwich Town Hall. It will then proceed up Field Point Road to Route 1, up Route 1 to the top of Greenwich Avenue and then down the length of Greenwich Avenue.
