Who doesn't love a parade? It may not be Magic Kingdom or Macy's, but several Westchester towns pull out all the stops for Saint Patrick's Day. Read on to who's marching and where to line up.
But first, have you been to LEGOLAND recently? LEGOLAND Discovery Center in Ridge Hill, Yonkers just opened LEGO City Builder.

And join us for a BabyGotChat drinks night Tuesday, March 20 at City Perch in Dobbs Ferry! We're taking it to the river towns and taking advantage of ladies night drink specials. We'll be there between 8pm and 10pm, and we'd love to see you!
