Posted by: thepinetree on 03/16/2014 09:00 PM

Murphys, CA....Murphys Irish Day 2014 is in the record books. We have over 700 photos in the photo album below. We hope to give you and opportunity to relive Irish Day 2014, or if you happened to miss it a chance to take in the flavor of the day and make plans to attend next year. Murphys Irish Day has matured into a yearly event for many from all over Northern California to attend. Was it a record setting crowd day? We heard estimates from 14-15,000 all the way to 30,000. Impossible to know exactly but the largest single day event in Calaveras County certainly lived up to it's billing and had thousands upon thousands filling Main Street. The top photo below was taken at 3:30pm looking up Main Street and well after peak crowd volume. The crowd on the street turned at least 2-3 times during the day....
