Our 2012 Grand Marshal
NEW
Michael Pitcher (center) stands with some of the past Grand Marshals of the Westhampton Beach St. Patrick's Day Parade moments after being selected as the 2012 Grand Marshal on November 13th at Kerrigan's Pub in Westhampton Beach. With Grand Marshal Pitcher are, from left, Jeannette McCreedy (2000), Brian McCreedy (1982), Arma 'Ham' Andon (2002), Jim Gohery (1995), Tony Galgano (1997), Sheryl Heather (2008), Lynne Jones (2010), Brian Crouse (2011) and Jay Sears (2001).
Citing his tremendous work to East End Hospice for more than 20 years, the Westhampton Beach St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee named Michael Pitcher as the 2012 Grand Marshal for the Westhampton Beach St. Patrick's Day Parade to be held this March 10, 2012.
Grand Marshal Pitcher, who was editor of the Hampton Chronicle and Southampton Press for 28 years as well as a board member of the Quogue Wildlife Refuge, will be the 46th ever Grand Marshal to lead the parade since it's inception in 1968.
"We work to select Grand Marshals based on their community service to the greater Westhampton Beach area," Committee President Tim Laube said. "Michael Pitcher fits the bill and will continue our great tradition of honoring men and women who have done right by our community."
Mr. Laube said the committee cited Mr. Pitcher's knowledge of the community because of  his work at the Chronicle and then Press and his efforts with the Wildlife Refuge as big reasons for his selection. However, it was his work with East End Hospice that was the highlight of his community service.
East End Hospice plans to break ground on a new facility in Quiogue in 2012 that will be the centerpiece of its efforts to help those facing terminal illness. Mr. Pitcher was cited for his work in helping the facility become a reality.
Because of the efforts of East End Hospice to build a new facilty, Mr. Pitcher seleted "A Home for Everyone," as his theme for the Parade in 2012.
