The 1960 Parade Committee is excited to announce the upcoming 32nd Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade for Sunday, March 14th, 2010. The parade benefits Cypress Creek EMS. Thanks to the community, the parade committee has raised over $100,000 over the last 5 years!
The parade is presented by an all volunteer committee. No administrative costs are deducted from your contribution! We need your sponsorship to meet the financial needs of this popular community event. It is your support that makes the parade possible.
Cypress Creek EMS is the volunteer-based 9-1-1 ambulance service covering 250 square miles of North/Northwest Harris County. They respond to approximately 30,000 calls annually and serve over 50,000 people. Community support has always been at the core of the organization's success.
The parade begins at 2 p.m. and proceeds down FM 1960 from Champion Forest Drive to Kuykendahl. Last year, over 100 entries and at least 75,000 spectators attended the parade. This is one of the largest community events in the Houston area!
Please click here for sponsorship information and here for entry forms.
If you have any questions or would like to register as a sponsor, please contact Elizabeth Livingood at 832-519-3135 or Rod Hudson at 713-822-4308.
