Despite the gloomy weather, Irish eyes were still smiling at this year’s Throggs Neck St. Patrick’s Day Parade! The 21st annual
Throggs Neck St. Patrick’s Day Parade on Sunday, March 10 featured Celtic-clad marchers and bands traveling on East Tremont
Avenue. This year’s groups consisted of local elected offi cials, schools, the FDNY, pipe and drum bands, community organizations
and families representing this year’s honorary grand marshals journeyed down the route which sported a fresh green
median and massive shamrock as thousands of Bronxites from all over the borough cheered from the sidelines.
