St. Patrick's Parade Draws Hundreds [PHOTOS]

Residents wear the green for annual village parade.

Posted by Stu Bayer, March 10, 2013 at 10:38 pm

Hundreds of residents lined Tate Avenue in the Village of Buchanan on Sunday afternoon for the village's annual St. Patrick's parade. Local schools, scouts, businesses and first responders marched along with bands, floats and emergency vehicles.

Grand Marshall Andy Cody marched with his family and his aides followed by village, town and county officials. Marchers tossed candy to spectators and some residents gave out free green lemonade along the route. Everyone was invited to the Village Pavilion for refreshments and music after the parade.

For all of you in support of a Meth Clinic I spoke to 4 police officer and 2 State Troopers that all…Read More said not a good thing for any community. I wonder why?? to all the supporters. Look at that Renaissance Project in Ellenville Security Guard killed and nurse was almost stabbed to dealth with months of recovery in a hospital. Many said oh if it wasn't for a Meth Clinic I wouldn't have made it. Oh FYI many in treatment 10 plus years obviously it isn't working folks. In defense of Mr. Catalina I guess we need to ask Mary Foster exactly how much this Article 78 cost in full and sure we will have our answer. Atty fees are astronomical if I knew we could beat this I would pay my fair share in taxes for the future of Peekskill. Unfotunately I don't believe everyone is willing to do that in these tough econonic times.

He finishes by saying that as a Lawyer he would not support an appeal to the court decision. so what would he do?

Look who's talking : we have always said we wanted it to remain at HVHC why don't you call Mr.…Read More Federspiel and ask him why he is dumping it in a undesirable area that will immensely affect the businesses, real estate, dangerous roads and community at large. You know as well as everyone else he doesn't want it there to tarnish his newly renovated beautiful complex. Ask him how much he is making off his other services. 200 K in the business world is a drop in the bucket. I bet you $10 all those patients that said I am going to contact he didn't even do so. So you are telling me this patients are law abiding citizens? Doubt it I know many people that have confided in me and said their sons, daughters, brother ,sisters have lied cheated stolen, and done time. Guess we will all see what happens in this community. Remember there are kids that will be walking to school. It is going to take one incident to wake up people.

Tele, I keep hearing the mantra from the right saying more guns equal less crime. The truth however…Read More flies in the face of this propaganda. A recent study actually shows that the highest homicide rates are in the states with the fewest gun controls. States like Louisiana, South Carolina, Mississippi and Alaska just to name a few. Sure, there are fewer homicides in Alaska than in New York, but adjusted for population, the per-ca-pita homicide rate is significantly lower in New York.
