The annual St. Patrick’s Day parade in Milton will not happen this year due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The Lucky Leprechaun 5K is also canceled. Parade Committee President Maryellen Kiernan said other events may happen on St. Patrick’s Day weekend, but no plans have been announced yet. The parade is sponsored by Irish Eyes in Milton, which donates money raised by the event to local civic organizations, with last year’s event benefiting the Milton Fire Department, Milton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Fourth of July fireworks fund and the Gladys Wilkins Agricultural Scholarship Fund.

Irish Eyes in Milton recently presented checks for a combined $13,000 raised through its St. Patrick’s Day parade to the Milton Fire Department and Milton Chamber of Commerce.
The fire department was given $7,000 and the chamber received $6,000.
Held March 8, 2020, the St. Patrick’s Day parade was one of the last large-scale events to take place before the COVID-19 pandemic shut the world down. Unfortunately, there will not be a St. Patrick’s Day parade this year, but parade committee President Maryellen Kiernan said, “Fear not, faithful parade fans; you never know what is up our sleeves because we love to throw a party!”

2020 was a rough year for everyone, but Milton restaurant owners Kristen and Marc Latham found it particularly difficult.
First, their flagship restaurant Suburban Farmhouse closed after the building was sold, then their retail business, Speckled Roost, was lost in a fire. All the while, they were opening two new businesses, The Fox Hole and the Dough Bar, at the same location.
