All plans and times remain the same for the Roanoke St. Patrick’s Day Celebration this Saturday March 13, with only a few minor set up changes caused by the weather forecast. The latest weather forecast calls for steady rain beginning Friday pm, but ending early am Sat. – around 7:00am is the current estimate. Thereafter, a chance of a passing light showers remains – but not steady rain! Temp. around 60.

We have ordered the big tent to place in the Corned Beef & Company parking lot (Celtic Festival site) that will cover the stage, band and all scheduled entertainment activities at the Celtic Festival. The McDonald’s St. Pat’s Parade will still start at 11:00am, the Roanoke Riverdance Challenge at around 10:30am (on Jefferson Street), and the Celtic Festival will continue downtown until 5:00pm.

Please pass this along to all your friends. Don’t get discouraged and stay away if you wake up Sat. and see rain. We’re told it will pass and continue to clear as the day progresses. We’re planning to see you there!
