Greetings Bethpage,
We certainly hope that you all enjoyed the recent parade for Saint Patrick's Day last Sunday! Although the chamber is involved and some of our members are sponsors or walked in the parade, it is not a chamber event like some other towns. The residents of Bethpage are so dedicated to holding this annual parade that there is a committee to organize the participants.

This year the chamber sponsored two mylar Shamrock topped 8 foot tall balloon towers to celebrate the weekend and were created by our newest chamber member Frank Ciminelli at Balloons N More - The Total Event on Hicksville Road in the Plainedge area. They were a fun accent to the first annual Connie Doolan Ball held at the Hartigan House on Friday for the Grand Marshal, Rose Marie Walker. The Ball will be held each year prior to the parade to commemorate the Saint Patrick's event. If you'd like to join please email the organizers at BethpageSaintPatricksCommittee@ gmail.com.

Visit our Facebook page to see the dozens of photos that we took from the weekend. More will be added as our members and residents share them with everyone!
