ST. RAPHAEL’S CENTRE YOUGHAL held their annual St. Patrick’s Day parade a couple of days early this year (Tuesday March 13th 2012). The colourful cast of characters in fancy dress costumes paraded around the grounds of the complex, led by Local piper Christy McCarthy from the Youghal Pipe Band. This year’s theme was “The Pirates of the Howling Wolf” with the St. Raphael’s Art & Drama group.
