(Middletown, NY)-State Senator John J. Bonacic (R/C/I-Mt. Hope) was pleased to attend the Mid-Hudson St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee Breakfast yesterday morning, at Kuhl’s Highland House in the Town of Wallkill. The breakfast is hosted every year on the day of the Mid-Hudson St. Patrick’s Day Parade to honor the Grand Marshal and the organizations that sponsor the parade. This year’s Grand Marshal was Sister Ann Daly of Goshen. This year’s breakfast had a special guest, His Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan.

Later in the day, Senator Bonacic joined thousands of eager spectators at the 40th Annual Mid-Hudson St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Goshen. Irish eyes were certainly smiling as the weather was spectacular. The Mid-Hudson Parade is one of the preeminent St. Patrick’s Day gathering in the region, bringing in marching units from all over New York State.
