Every first Thursday of the month until March, St. Patrick’s Grand Marshals will be on-site at four locations, standing in as celebrity bartenders to help serve drinks, as a special twist on Hackettstown's "Late Night Thursdays" for the winter months, with shops staying open late. The celebrity bartenders to date include: Roger Hines (’11), Barbara-Jayne Lewthwaite (’13), and the 2017 Grand Marshal, Michael Lavery, with others to be announced.
This monthly event will take place to support the St. Patrick’s Parade committee that puts in months of time and energy to put on the highly anticipated St. Patrick’s Parade. There will be a $20 cover donation at any of the four participating bars/breweries, which gives attendees a ticket good for a beer at each location that night.
