**Binghamton Firefighters Host Pre-Parade Party to Support Family of J.R. Gaudet**

The Binghamton Fire Department has announced a special Pre-Parade Party, set to take place on Friday, February 28, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM. The event will be held at Celebrations on Park, located at 136 Park Avenue, Binghamton, in the former Knights of Columbus building.

Admission for the event is $25 per person, which includes access to food and beverages. The party will feature live music by "The Shambles," a Celtic/folk/rock band known for their mix of traditional and contemporary Celtic music. Additional entertainment includes performances by the Edward P. Maloney Memorial Pipe Band and the Carle School of Irish Dance.

This event is open to the public, and all proceeds will support the family of J.R. Gaudet, a Binghamton firefighter.

As part of the fundraising efforts, memorial t-shirts honoring J.R. Gaudet will be available for purchase at the event. The shirts are priced at $30, with all proceeds going directly to the firefighter's family. Online orders are also available through the dedicated website, and shirts can either be picked up at Binghamton Fire Station 4 (176 Robinson Street) or shipped within the United States for an additional $15 shipping fee. Orders are expected to be ready by approximately March 19, and customers will receive an email notification when their orders are prepared.

For those interested in supporting a good cause while enjoying a night of music, food, and community, the Pre-Parade Party promises to be a meaningful and lively event.
