This year, in addition to our traditional Aides, we have selected David Walsh, born in Ballina, County Mayo, Ireland, and longtime White Plains resident as Special Aide to the Grand Marshal.

In addition, Colleen Wall and Westchester County Police Officer Vincent Finnegan, Jr., have been selected as the first ever, Rising Lad and Lassie. They represent the under 30-age group.
