PEARL RIVER- The Rockland County Ancient Order of Hibernians will be hosting their annual St. Patrick’s Day parade on Sunday, March 17th in Pearl River with the parade stepping off at 1:30 p.m.
The parade will leave from the Pfizer parking lot heading East into East Crooked Hill Road. The parade route will turn South onto North Middletown Road, continue onto East Central Avenue, and will end at the turn on South Main Street.
Roads in the area of the parade route will be closed beginning at noon. Spectators and motorists should also be aware that roadways around the parade route may remain closed an hour or more after the parade concludes.
In a joint statement, Ancient Order of Hibernian’s Men’s County Board President Dermot Moore and Ladies’ Ancient Order of Hibernian County Board President Terry McGeever thanked Orangetown and the hamlet of Pearl River for hosting the parade.
“An event such as the Rockland County St. Patrick’s Day Parade which draws tens of thousands of people would be impossible without the hospitality of the Town of Orangetown, the hamlet of Pearl River and the professionalism of its first responders, particularly the Orangetown Police department, who provide a friendly and safe environment for the day’s proceedings.”
