It’s easy to get rid of rowdy teens. Install speakers on the lamposts (out of reach of course). Play Pavorotti, Beethoven, Wagner, etc. constantly. They’ll leave pronto.
Haha. Agreed.
Or, and this will sound crazy, expect more from parents than we do from the government.
Also, I think 50+ years is enough with this parade. It’s pointless and hasn’t had anything to do with Irish culture for a few decades. It’s a drunken free for all that costs more than it’s worth. I know the bar owners will be upset, but tough s#*^.
I agree. Parade has worn out its welcome. ( Unless you own a bar!) What is the cost to taxpayers? Police, DPW overtime? Or does the parade committee pick up the tab through their many many fundraisers?
I’m sure the taxpayers foot the bill. Bye bye parade!
