Save the Dallas St Patrick's Day Parade on Lower... →
The organizers need to raise almost $40,000 to save the parade this year. The Dallas St Patty’s parade is the 2nd largest St Patty’s Day parade in the nation and one of the only days Dallas residents are allowed to drink in public. Save our wonderful celebration!
