MERIDEN — Almost 50 years ago Mayor Abe Grossman rallied the city in a first-of-its kind celebration of central Connecticut's deep-rooted Irish American heritage. Grossman got in touch with the Meriden chapter of the Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) — a Catholic organization formed in 1836 to protect Irish immigrants from hate crimes — and worked with the community to set up the first annual St. Patrick's Day Parade in Meriden. This year the tradition will continue on Saturday, March 18 at 2 p.
