Some great general once said that an army marches on its stomach.
The same might be said for a parade. All that marching works up a powerful hunger. And viewing, too, for that matter.
So you might want to fuel up for Saturday’s Morris County St. Patrick’s Parade with snacks from the Woman’s Club of Morristown.
The ladies will be selling light refreshments at 51 South St, with proceeds going to Project Gratitude, a gift program for veterans. Read on for full details from the club:
MORRISTOWN, NJ, March 12, 2014 – The Evening Social Services Department of the Woman’s Club of Morristown will be selling light refreshments at the Morris County St. Patrick’s Day Parade on Saturday, March 15, beginning at 8 a.m. Club members will be set up in front of the clubhouse, the historic Dr. Lewis Condict House, at 51 South Street in Morristown. Available will be coffee, hot cocoa, hot tea, bottled water, bagels, cookies, and soda bread.

Project Gratitude honors and thanks members of the United States Armed Forces for their service.
