Despite the wind and persistent drizzle, a huge number of people lined the streets of Boyle for our 2017 St. Patrick’s Day Parade. They enjoyed a spectacular display of floats from the area and further afield. Favourable comment has been received in praise of the organising committee’s dedication in arranging this start of season event to what we hope will be a great year here in the town we love so well. The committee wishes to thank all involved on the day …  our main sponsors, Boyle Chamber of Commerce and Boyle Credit Union, as well as our traders, Gardai & Co Council, Langan Fruit & Veg, Ardcarne Garden Centre, Pure flowers, Dermot Leyden, Mike Jnr Smith, our stewards and several others for contributing time, resources and money so generously and for making it possible to run a successful parade this year and previous years
