(KAIR)--Irish Cheers for 40 Years is the theme this year, as Atchison, on Saturday, will figuratively turn green as Saint Patrick's Day festivities are held through the city.
The highlight of the day will be the annual St. Patrick's Day parade, through downtown Atchison, at 2:00.
Atchison's Janie Pickman has served as Parade Chair for nearly 20-years, and tells MSC News Saturday's activities, as tradition holds, will begin Saturday morning, prior to parade time.
The role of Grand Marshal, for 2024, is bestowed posthumously on longtime parade announcer, and all around volunteer, Paul Komarek.
Once Saturday's parade is completed, awards, in three categories, will be presented to the winners.
