An information only meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 28th in the City Hall board room at 7 p.m. for any further questions about road closures, event times, etc. Resident passes within the parade route only will also be available before the short meeting starting at 4:00 p.m. http://www.stpatparade.org/images/event_map.pdf
