Grand Marshal
Michael A. Benn

Michael A. Benn is a proud son of Limerick, and the longtime chairman of the Queens County St. Patrick’s Parade Committee in the Rockaway.

In 2013, just months after the devastation caused by Superstorm Sandy to the Rockaways, he and his committee held a St Patrick’s Day Parade, an event credited with boosting morale and helping the Rockaway community come together after the loss of life and property during the storm. Mike A. Benn was one of the communities’ leaders credited with helping the Rockaways rebuild following the devastation.

Mike A. Benn is a very proud union man, having been a member of Local 30 International Union of Operating Engineers and Local 608 Carpenters Union. His dedication to the Rockaway community, Limerick, to his faith and his Irish traditions is an inspiration to all.

We, as a community, are proud of him and we know that all New Yorkers will look to and admire him as he leads the greatest Parade in the world!
