St. Patrick's Day Parades, 2026

Mar 17
1 min read

On March 14 and 15, Mother Jones was there in Chicago's St. Patrick's Day parades. Here are some images, including a new banner. Always great to to see the crowd's reaction, and to connect past and present. Kudos to the members and apprentices from Bricklayers and Tuckpointers and Roofers who brought their kids and are telling them about this history.




And on Sunday, a cold wet day, our friends at United Roofers Local 11 took her to the Southside St Patrick's event: always marching with Mother Jones -- moving their Local forward by honoring the

past.

The gaming industry continues to change, and players now expect websites to provide a convenient and informative experience. Features are important, but clear communication matters just as much. Visitors should be able to understand the rules, available options, and account requirements without difficulty. I also appreciate reminders bdg game register about privacy and responsible participation. When a website provides balanced information rather than exaggerated promises, it becomes easier for readers to evaluate the platform and decide whether its features suit their needs.

This article provides a useful introduction to the topic and explains the main ideas in an understandable manner. Massar I like the natural writing style because it keeps the content engaging without making the discussion difficult to follow. Well-presented information can save readers time and help them explore unfamiliar subjects more confidently. The article offers a good starting point for further learning. I would be interested in reading more guides that include practical examples and helpful explanations.

Great roundup! I keep my parade notes in Markdown, and cleaning them up before sharing used to be a real chore. Lately I just paste them into md to text and get readable plain text in a second — handy for quick posts like this one.

Reading through the 2026 parade schedule, what strikes me is how much of a parade’s history lives with the people watching rather than on the route map. My grandfather marched in one of these parades in the 1950s and the stories he told were never about the route, always about the crowds.

That is part of why I enjoy noillirk, a small daily crowd-guess game where you read a scene and estimate how many people are in it. It is a gentle way to practice the same instinct these neighbourhood traditions depend on — knowing your crowd.
