St Patrick’s Day Parade

Billy Powell
The OD Shag Club was well represented in the 2018 North Myrtle Beach St. Patrick’s Day Parade. We had 25 golf carts and 86 people participate this year. A great time was had by all before, during and after the parade. This year, we thru out over 15,000 strands of beads during the parade.
Bill and Diane Millman were our banner carriers this year and their costumes were outstanding! Many thanks to Rich and Karen Young and Sonny Tomberlin who helped me register everyone and hand out beads and all the other administrative tasks before a parade begins. I could not do all of this without the help of my significant other, Monica. Her help and support during and after all of the parades is immeasurable.
I know that it requires getting up a little earlier than most of us would like to be in this parade, but I promise you the fun and fellowship that you have makes it well worth the effort. If you did not participate this year, please consider making next year’s parade.
Our next parade is on April 28, the SOS Parade. I am looking forward to a great turnout this year for SOS.
