The wearing of the green! The 39th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Celebration and Parade sponsored by the Irish-American Club of Southern Minnesota was held Saturday in Janesville. A new Miss St. Patrick and Miss Irish Rose for the coming year were to be selected from the 5 contestants. The contestants included Nicole Frisk, Mankato; Sammie Hoehn, Waseca; Molly McLaughlin, Mankato; Samantha Passer, Blue Earth; and Carrie Sommers, Waseca. (As published in the Waseca County News.)

Who were the chosen ones?

Update: Molly Rose McLaughlin of Mankato was crowned Miss Irish Rose and Sammie Hoehn was crowned Miss St. Patrick during the Irish-American Club of Southern Minnesota’s celebration last Saturday in Janesville. (As published in the Waseca County News.)

Have a happy, and safe, St. Patrick’s Day next Saturday!
