The mini-Parade to put a green stripe down the center of 4th Ave, to mark the route of the St.
Patrick's Day Parade, took place the night before the St. Patrick's Day Parade. That means that
this year, the Green Stripe was on Friday, March 12, starting at 7 PM. Participants gathered
at F X McRory's at 6:30 PM to ride the Truck or Trolley up to Prefontaine Park.
The stripe ran from 4th Ave and Jefferson to Westlake Park, a distance of about one mile.
Paople came along for the 'craic' - a Gaelic word meaning "a lot of fun'.
