Shamrockin’ Mayhem
Saturday, March 13, 2021. Welcome to our annual St. Paddy’s themed event, modified for COVID safety. While we can’t wait to shuffle in Downtown Toledo and join everyone for a drink in the Blarney Irish Pub’s party tent again, it just isn’t in the cards this year. But that doesn’t mean we can’t still have a good time. We’re relocating to The Shops at Fallen Timbers, where we’ll paint the town green and create some mayhem a little differently.
X&A 5K
Sunday, March 21, 2021, 2:00 p.m. (kids 1K fun run at 1:30 p.m.) at 208 N. East Ave., Deshler, Ohio. The month of March not only represents the celebration of Xavier’s birthday but also the third anniversary of Xavier and Aidan’s entering into eternal life on 3/21. The 3.21 run commemorates this date. Please join us in this community event to run the streets of Deshler, on roads they ran repeatedly over the years, in celebration of their lives. The 5K (3.1-mile) race begins and ends at Pirate Park with all proceeds earned going towards wellness projects in the Patrick Henry community.
