A GREAT turnout of support was present at Rocky's Bar, Castlebar, to acknowledge and thank the efforts of a number of participants and organisers of this year's St. Patrick's Day Parade.
Eighteen groups and individuals received recognition for their support and contribution to the parade which helped ensure its success this year.
These groups included those who took part in the parade and local business who also put a big effort into their window display for the day.
Elected members of Mayo County Council, who also support the parade each year, were also present to acknowledge the efforts of the recipients on the evening.
