Happy St. Patrick’s Day Weekend, everyone!
This week, and over the past few months, I have been traveling to celebrations all across our district to recognize our community’s deep Irish heritage and the contribution of Irish Americans to Western Massachusetts in anticipation this weekend’s holiday. As we all get ready to enjoy tomorrow’s parade in Holyoke, I want to thank all of the countless parade volunteers and committee members who have worked tirelessly to make all these events and the parade possible!
Earlier this week my team presented citations to the Holyoke and Chicopee colleens’ courts during the annual visit to Holyoke Medical Center. On Thursday I enjoyed helping serve a traditional boiled dinner over at the West Springfield Council on Aging for their St. Patrick’s Day Lunch. Yesterday morning I fueled up in preparation for today’s Holyoke Road Race by grabbing a bite at the Greater Westfield Chamber of Commerce’s annual St. Patrick’s Day breakfast. I can’t wait to see many of you along the streets of Holyoke for the parade tomorrow where I will be marching with the Westfield Parade Committee. With all of these celebrations going on today and tomorrow, I hope everyone is able take part safely.
