AC St. Patrick’s Parade set for Saturday
Who’s in the mood for a parade and paddy? Make Your way to the world-famous Atlantic City Boardwalk on Saturday, March 9 for the 36th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Get your green on and hang with 50,000 leprechauns who will be shaking their shamrocks. The family friendly parade begins at 1 p.m. at 500 Boardwalk and will trek 2 miles down to Albany Ave. The boards fill up quickly, so get there early for the best viewing spots.
Seventy-plus floats and walking groups are expected to participate in this year’s parade. Leading the line will be two Grand Marshals — award-winning actor Kelsey Grammer and local philanthropic businessman Steve Troiano! Grammer is best known for his iconic roles on TV shows “Cheers” and “Frasier”. He also is the founder of Faith American Brewing Company. Troiano is the proprietor of Maynard’s Café in Margate. Maynard’s has been a community staple since 1966 and hosts countless fundraisers each year for organizations such as Adelaide’s Place and for local fire and police departments.
