I bet you can name a bunch of St. Patrick’s Day traditions off the top of your head. Shamrocks, leprechauns, corned beef and cabbage, the list goes on! Here on Long Island we have another big St. Patrick’s Day tradition, and that tradition is St. Patrick’s Day parades! All over Long Island this March you’ll be encountering masses of people decked out from head to toe in green traveling down town streets surrounded by even more people celebrating on the sidewalks cheering them on. It’s the sort of fun that only comes around once a year!
