As we announced earlier, the St. Patrick’s Day Committee has recently announced that there will be no parade this year due to the ongoing construction at Armory Park and other factors. Since that time SAR has been looking into alternate locations to hold this event.SAR is excited to announce that we will hold this year’s Desert Leprechaun race at Curtis Park. We are very pleased to provide you all with a safe, fast, tried and true 5K course that we have used multiple times for Dave’s Run for ALS. We will also have a 1 Mile race that is traditionally a part of this event.
Our goal will be to make this a St. Patrick’s Day party, with a costume contest, lots of decorations, and St. Patrick’s Day themed prizes. However, please note that the event will not have beer this year.
We definitely hope that the St. Patrick’s Day Parade is back for 2027 and will keep you all updated on the status.
The 5K will be a part of The Running Shop SAR Grand Prix series.
