Talk:South Side Irish

Untitled

At first, I simply made a small correction about the location of the modern day parade's founders, who lived on 109th Street, not 114th. (See here: http://southsideirishparade.org/history-of-the-parade/) After taking another look at it, I figured the sentences could use a bit of polish. Here was the text before my edit (not including the location change):

"In the 1970's, families on the 109th block of S. Washtenaw and Talman streets (known forever in parade lore as the Wee Folks of Washtenaw and Talman) began their own parade, and so The South Side Irish Parade officially returned in 1979. The new parade route is 103rd Street to 115th Street on Western Avenue through the Beverly and Morgan Park neighborhoods. The parade is held on the Sunday before St. Patrick's Day every year. The 2006 parade was the 28th annual parade. The parade is considered to be one of the largest St. Patrick's Day community celebrations outside of Ireland."

South Side Irish Parade is (planned) to return

Any ideas on how to note the return of the South Side Irish Parade?
