KALAMAZOO, MI For the second consecutive year, the St. Patrick’s Day parade was canceled in downtown Kalamazoo, but it didn’t stop the green beer from flowing.
Downtown came to life with live Irish music on Bates Alley, the North Kalamazoo Mall, and from the Kalamazoo State Theatre’s marquee. Hundreds of people dressed in green soaked in the sun as they strolled the Central Commons Refreshment Area. St. Patrick and Liam the Leprechaun appeared around town to spread charm and luck to those in attendance.
