Shamrock Shuffle March 17
The Shamrock Shuffle is Saturday March 17. The Lakota West Upbeat Club will be a recipient of the Shamrock Shuffle 2018 proceeds from the West Chester/Liberty Community Foundation. We need at least 15 people to register to receive some of the funds. The more people we have registered, the more money we receive. The race is on March 17, at the clock tower, so put your green gear on and join the fun! There is a 5k and an 10K, a Leprechaun Lap for kids, a beer obstacle course and a Sleep In Special. The cost to register for the 5K is $38.37, kids under 15 are $15.00 and the 10K is $40.00. Go to The Shamrock Shuffle to register for the race. Click Race Registration in the top right corner. The Lakota West Upbeat Club is listed in the Charities section.
