Helmville Parade. "It's a great day for a parade," said the Grinch, played by Larry Dillree of Ovando
Helmville has Irish roots that go back five generations in many of the residents. St. Patrick's Day is celebrated with a parade, a corned beef and cabbage potluck and special music on the weekend.
The parade route runs from the Post Office to the Copper Queen.
Parade participants included American Legion Post #9 from Lincoln, motocross riders, Mannix Ranch, families in side-by-sides, a horse and buggy, dogs, kids and balloons. More than 70 people packed the Copper Queen for the potluck. "The Shamrockers of Montana" played and jigged at the Copper Queen Saturday.
