Peoples Savings Bank President and CEO Doug Bowen, the 2013 Citizenship Award Winner made a few remarks before the start of the race. His bank is a major supporter of the race and sponsor of the Mummers band.


“This race came at an ideal time. It’s a great course - a miniature Boston. There were a lot of people out there watching considering the weather. I guess this town goes crazy for St. Patrick’s Day.”
- John Treacy
