The Irish Colleen
Every year prior to the parade, SaPaDaPaSo members nominate an Irish Colleen.
The Irish Colleen is an extra touch of class for the parade
She is a young girl of Irish descent who is selected by a panel of judges, based on a questionnaire and submitted photo. She serves as a hostess at the Irish Hooley, rides in a convertible during the parade, and helps distribute awards at the after-parade celebration.
This honored position is a position of prestige in the Irish community.
