NYC St. Patrick’s Day Parade

(Extracurricular Activities and Faith-Based Involvement, Class of 2012) Permanent link All Posts

As a member of the CGA Regimental Band, I had an amazing experience this semester. All band members were given the opportunity to participate in the annual New York City St. Patrick’s Day Parade – yes, the one that is on television! It was a unique experience. I had marched in many parades before, but not one as televised as this one. Marching through NYC with masses of people on either side of the parade was surreal; over three-million people were in attendance. The sound of everyone cheering was deafening. New York City was definitely the place to be this St. Patrick’s Day. This is the type of amazing experience cadets have the opportunity to have!
