ORGANIZATION: The Parade Company

The Parade Company is providing volunteers for The United Irish Societies' St. Patrick's Parade on March 16!
We are in need of volunteers to serve as Unit Marshals for this fun and treasured annual celebration.

  • Volunteer Description: Unit Marshal volunteers will help direct Parade participants to their designated spot in the staging area. They walk with their assigned groups along the parade route and keep the pace of the Parade.

The Detroit St. Patrick's Parade route follows along Michigan Avenue through the area known as Corktown. Step-off is at 1:30 PM. Report time for volunteers is 10:30 AM. This is a really fun parade and a long-time, beloved tradition in Detroit. Volunteers must be at least 16 years old.

Please note: In order to volunteer, you must also attend the mandatory Zoom Volunteer Orientation on Tuesday, March 11, 5-6 PM.
