St. Patrick’s Day is always a day filled with rich traditions. For the last 35 years downtown Flint has hosted a major St. Patrick’s Day tradition, the Pot O’ Gold four mile run and walk!
This years After Party will feature another Irish traditional, a live music session, known in Irish as a seisiún.
The Pot O’ Gold starts at the Masonic Temple downtown Flint on Tuesday, March 17. The kids’ race starts at 5:30 pm and the run starts at 6:00 pm, with the walk starting one minute after.
