The streets of Belmar were stepping lively as scores of people from the Jersey Shore towns gathered March 5 for the annual Belmar Lake Como St. Patrick's Day Parade.

Along with numerous bagpipe and drum corps and colorfully decorated floats the parade featured participation by this year's Grand Marshal, Eugene 'Chip' Cavanagh as well as students from several Catholic school communities including St. Rose, Belmar; St. Catharine, Spring Lake; St. Peter, Point Pleasant Beach, and Christian Brothers Academy, Lincroft.
