Each year the start of the St. Patrick’s Day season begins with the Rockland County Emerald Ball. Once again, the Rockland County Mens’ and Ladies’ Ancient Order of Hibernians invite you to support this special event. The Emerald Ball is a night to celebrate our Irish heritage with great friends, food, and music and also serves as the primary fundraiser for the Annual Rockland County St. Patrick’s Day Parade. We hope you will join us at this year’s Ball on Saturday, February 22, 2025 at the Pearl River Hilton at 7 P.M.
As always, we will honor individuals who distinguish themselves through their actions and personify our motto of “Friendship, Unity & Christian Charity.” As such, we are proud to announce the 2025 honorees:
- Hibernian of the Year: Charles “Chuck” Parnow
- Businesspersons of the Year,: Bernie (Foley) Fitzgerald, Tara (Tonner) McDonald & Tina (Segatta) Murphy, The Gracie Rose, Pearl River, NY
- Parade Commander: Patrick Casey, Orangetown Police Dept
- Grand Marshal: John W. McGowan
- Aide to the Grand Marshal, NYC: John B. Kelly, Jr.
There are a variety of ways that you can support this year’s event, including attending the Emerald Ball, sponsoring a journal ad, or making a direct donation. Details for purchasing tickets and journal ads or making a direct donation can be found here.
