Bartlesville Radio: The area’s best source for news, weather and sports!

ShamRock the 'Ville, a St. Patrick's Day celebration in downtown Bartlesville, is set to return in March.

Festivities include a 5K race, a one mile Fun Run, prizes and plenty of great costumes. This event benefits Catholic Charities Mary Martha Outreach (CCMMO), a non-profit organization that provides necessary items to those in need.

Registration will open at 7:30 a.m. on the day of the event. The 5K will start at 9:00 a.m. The Fun Run will start shortly after the 5K. To download a form, click here.

According to ShamRock the 'Ville's website, the 5K course is certified by USATF and winds through historic downtown Bartlesville. The 5K run is a chip-timed race with prizes to the top three racers (overall and by age/gender). The one mile Fun Run is not timed. You can also cheer from the couch.

Race is as scheduled, rain or shine. Extreme circumstances may lead to a cancellation, in which case your entry fee will be used as a donation to CCMMO.

If you wish to volunteer, your commitment will begin at 7:30 a.m. on March 5. Your service will last 2.5 hours at the most. The Volunteer Coordinator will be in touch with more information, including details about your assignment, after you register here.
