Inception: Our story begins in 2008. Irish Eyes had been operating in Milton for almost 2 years and was searching for a way to be more involved with this wonderful town.
Early Success: The Milton St. Patrick's Day Parade was born from this desire to give back. The first year had only a dozen entries, raising about $1000 for the Milton Fire Department and Casa San Francisco.
Growth: Now here we are twelve years later, with three benefactors: The Milton Fire Department, The Milton Chamber of Commerce, and the Women's Club of Milton.
Record Participation: The event enjoyed the best year to date in 2023 with a record of 588 registered participants.
