A float with flags and balloons is ready to take part in the annual St. Patrick’s parade in St. Charles on Saturday. Gilberts resident Debbie Sellers said she doesn’t have any Irish descendants that she knows of but it’s never been a hinderance when it comes to celebrating as St. Patrick’s Day nears.
The opening ceremony included Irish dancers as well as a bagpipe group and the chance to take part in a St. Patrick’s scavenger hunt that featured a total of 20 shamrock clovers hidden around the downtown. Curione said over 80 entries made up the procession this year with entrants consisting of “businesses, Scout groups, eight bands and not-for-profit groups.”
“I think it’s important we continue to do this as it brings people into our town and they get to see what St. Charles is all about,” she said. “It’s an opportunity to highlight what we do and people here like celebrating our community.” Steve Martin of St. Charles was one of dozens of volunteers who helped out Saturday during the St. Patrick’s parade in St. Charles.
