2011 New London Irish and Mystic Irish Parades

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

Come out and cheer on NLC Rugby as they take part in the New London Irish and Mystic Irish Parades.

The 4th Annual NL Irish Parade is on Thursday March 17th at 3PM and the parade route is from the Bank St. Connector continues up State Street to end at Hanfin’s Irish Pub.  Players and others marching in the parade are asked to meet on Bank St. at 2PM, prior to the start.

The 21st Mystic Irish Parade is on Sunday March 20th at 1PM and the parade route is here.   Players and others marching in the parade are asked to meet in the the South parking lot for Mystic Seaport (farthest from Olde Mystick Village) on Greenmanville Rd. at 11AM.  There will probably only be a few parking spots at this parking lot so everyone should park at the North lot of Mystic Seaport (closest to Olde Mystick Village) and walk down to the other lot.
