SUMMARY:52nd Annual St Patrick's Parade | Ancient Order of Hibernians
DESCRIPTION:St Patrick’s Parade \nThe 2025 AOH St. Patrick’s Parade will be held on Saturday\, March 8\, 2025! \nEach year\, the Louisville Hibernians put together\, with the wonderful help of all of our “Irish” friends\, the greatest parade of ALL TIME! \nCome celebrate with us during our week of annual parade events open to all. \nThe Grand Marshal will be the Irish Person of the Year who was selected by AOH officers and members. \nSpecial thanks to our sponsors – without them\, this Parade Celebration would not be possible! Please support them…so they can keep supporting our great community! \n  \nHibernian Heroes\nThe Ancient Order of Hibernians have a long and storied history of protecting\, serving\, and aiding those in need. They have continuously served others from its’ humble start in Ireland to its’ beginnings in America. \nToday\, the AOH in Louisville is proud to have a strong presence in this wonderful city. We’re equally honored to be able to support local communities\, those in need\, and the city in general. \nIn fulfilling our mission to serve\, the AOH understands the importance of honoring the brave men and women that serve this great community in accordance with our AOH motto of Friendship\, Unity and Christian Charity. \nTo that end\, we now honor those that rush in when others run away\, those that step into chaos as others retreat\, and those that save others without regard to anything other than service and honor. \nWe proudly present the Hibernian Hero Award yearly to the LMPD\, Sheriff\, LFD\, and EMS person of the year. It’s true a privilege to honor the first responders that allow us to do what we do by being on call for all. \n  \nSt Patrick’s Coloring Contest\nFor nearly 50 straight years\, the Hibernians have conducted this wax-crayon Coloring Contest for Kindergarten through 4th grade students. \nThis long-standing tradition reinforces to our up-and-coming generation that St. Patrick was a real person who did amazing work in Ireland. \nThe contest also teaches the children of the deep meaning and symbolism of the Shamrock: \nThe leaves of the shamrock make one plant\nLikewise\, the Three Persons of the Trinity is One God \nEach entry is carefully considered. “There’s certainly no pulling the winner out of a hat\,” according to the Coloring Contest founder and head judge\, Ken McKiernan. McKiernan started the contest in the early 1970’s. \n  \n  \n***Description from AOH website
