It has been estimated that 40,000 spectators and supporters have attended this annual event in years past, which was conceived as a way to bring an end to the dreary winters in Montauk and welcome Spring with a joyous and festive Irish celebration. The Montauk St. Patrick’s Day Parade has become a part of the fabric of the community over it’s many years, and while the faces in the crowds lining the streets have changed, what has not changed are the smiles on those faces, young and old alike, and the fun all are welcome to join in at this community event.
The Montauk Friends of Erin is proudly honoring this year’s Grand Marshal–Thomas Grenchi Jr.
