Another Clonroche St Patrick’s Day parade is being planned by Clonroche Developmen­t Associatio­n. This is a major showcase for organisati­ons and businesses in the area to present their community in a positive perspectiv­e on the National Day.

We hope to have more floats in this year’s parade and we understand that planning is at an advanced stage within some businesses, sporting and community groups It will also present an opportunit­y for local business in the village by attracting visitors and community onlookers and it is hoped, as in previous year’s, they will avail of the opportunit­y and contribute in making this day a spectacle to remember.
