GENERALLY SPEAKING: Week of March 29
Bay Ridge St. Pat’s Parade lucks out!
Irish eyes were certainly smiling on Fifth Avenue for Bay Ridge’s annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Despite dire weather forecasts for off-and-on showers, the parade took place with nary a raindrop. A color guard from the Fort Hamilton Army Base led the parade, followed by Bay Ridge’s own Clann Eireann Pipe Band.
