The John F. Nicoll pipe band performs at the 2015 St. Patrick’s Day parade in York on March 14, 2015. JULIA HATMAKER | [email protected] the second year in a row, the city of York’s annual Saint Patrick’s Day parade has been canceled for 2022 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and a lack of volunteers.
Organizers said in a press release that “while COVID-19 is the main reason we have decided to cancel the upcoming parade, the underlying problem of not having enough people to assist with putting it on was a major factor.” “For years, a small group of devoted residents have brought the parade, and numerous corresponding events, to fruition on a shoestring budget,” the statement read. “Unfortunately, a small group can only do so much for so long. The committee needs new members to ensure this family-friendly tradition doesn’t become a thing of the past.”
Organizers said they are specifically looking for people to help with marketing, accounting, fundraising, social media and event planning. Those interested in volunteering should emailAs a result of the cancellation, all entry fees, sponsorships, and donations will be applied to the 2023 parade. Those who would like a refund should send mail to YSPDP, P.O.
