The next Nutley Irish meeting will be March 19th at 8pm at the VFW Post 493, 271 Washington Avenue. New members welcome! An Abundance of Gratitude! The Nutley Irish Oﬃcers and Trustees would like to thank everyone who helped to make this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade and all of the events surrounding the pa‐
rade a huge success. This year we had yet another fine set of dignitaries that worked hard to represent the Nutley Irish well. All of the parade events went oﬀ without a hitch including the Dignitary Fundraiser, the Pub Tour, the Investiture Mass, the Parade, the Post Parade Party, the Newark Parade, and the West Orange Parade. These events don’t run themselves, and there are so many people who stepped up to make them what they were. This winter’s multiple storms tried to put a damper on our events, but it didn’t happen. It has been said numerous times by various people that this year has been the best year for Nutley Irish’s events, and we believe the en‐
tire membership has something to be proud of for helping to contribute to it. Relay for Life Strike Out Autism The Scarpelli Civic Association will be having their 5th Annual Strike Out Au‐
