GREENTOP, MO. -- For St. Patrick's day, there were lucky celebrations in Greentop on Saturday.

People of all ages were greened out for their St. Patrick's day parade.

People enjoyed floats, food, drinks and everything green!

"It had been 69 years since they've had a parade in this town. We started it 5 years ago and its grown from 15 to over 100. So it means a lot to us here," said event organizer, Jeff Watkins.

There were also float competitions and the group with the best float won a prize.

Parade-goers say if they could get all greened out all the time, they would.
