10th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Celebration is Saturday

Despite the efforts of one of her bodyguards, I managed to get a photo this week of the 2010 St. Patrick’s Day Celebration grand marshal, Emily Monaghan.

The screenshot on the right is from the ad in the March Northfield Entertainment Guide.

See this 20-second video of the Folding Chair Precision Marching Unit from the 2007 parage which included Northfield City Councilors Jim Pokorney and Noah Cashman. I’m not sure if this will be in this year’s parade:

For more, see this Northfield News article by intern Emily Hartley titled Festivities will mark St. Patrick’s Day in town:

Residents will be rolling in the green Saturday at Northfield’s 10th annual St. Patrick’s Celebration. The all-ages event includes a parade and costume contests and will culminate with a get-together at the Contented Cow. Festivities begin with a pre-parade luncheon at Froggy Bottom’s and a get-together in the Econofoods parking lot before the parade up Division Street, which starts at 2 p.m. Leading the parade will be a piper from St. Paul, Northfield resident Jim Bohnhoff as St. Patrick and this year’s grand marshal, Emily Monaghan.

And here are my photo albums from the 2005 and 2007 events:
