Despite blustery conditions on Saturday, March 14th, 175 First Source employees, family members, and friends came out to show their spirit at the Utica St. Patrick’s Day Parade. It was a great morning interacting with our community as we handed out candy and beads and cheered our First Source Irish chant loud and proud.

Their enthusiasm and community pride didn’t go unnoticed. At the Parade Awards Ceremony, First Source was honored by the Utica St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee and judges with a First Place Award in the Marching Unit category.

At First Source, we love being part of traditions that bring our community together. Seeing our employees, families, and friends show up with so much spirit made the day even more special—and taking home first place made it even sweeter. We’re already looking forward to marching again next year!
