Shamrock Shuffle returns in March
The 13th annual Shamrock Shuffle race is scheduled to return on March 26 in Harmony.
The event is an annual fundraiser for the the Zelienople Rotary Club, and includes several different competitions: a half marathon that begins at 7:30, a 5k at 10:15 a.m. and a 1-mile fun run beginning at 11 a.m.
Festivities include food, drinks, music and costumes during and between races.
"This is one of our favorite events of the year. People run covered head-to-toe in green and in a variety of costumes. We have participants that come from other states every year and many of them are repeat runners,” John Avolio, Zelienople Rotary Club president, said in a statement.
“There are three different races that take place, so there is a race for everyone and it’s an opportunity to show off our wonderful community,” he said. “All of the proceeds from the race will allow our Rotary club to make a difference and positive impact in the Zelienople/Harmony area."
