Save Some Green and Celebrate St. Patty’s with Chocolate, Beer & Spring Training Baseball!!!
Saturday March 17, 2012
Glendale, Arizona: It’s going to be a full day of St. Patty’s celebrations in Arizona, starting with the Kiss Me I’m Irish Run/Walk at Westgate City Center, followed by a double-header spring training game at Camelback Ranch-Glendale - the home of the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers.
Westgate will be dyeing the fountains green in honor of St. Patty’s and to raise Prostate Cancer awareness. Begin the day there and join us for a walk or run - 4k, 8k or 17k - at the Kiss Me I’m Irish Run, with a special Dad’s & Lad’s division that raises money for Prostate Cancer.
Festivities begin at 5:30 am with on-site packet pickup and Irish music. The walk/run starts at 7:17 am. Every Kiss Me I’m Irish participant will receive a great big kiss as they cross the finish line - a chocolate kiss! And the winner in every age division of all three races (17K, 8K and 4K) receives a medal and a giant 8 ounce candy kiss.
Post-race, all participants over 21 are invited to McFadden’s Irish Pub to enjoy a complimentary beer and a discounted traditional Irish Breakfast. See www.irishrunaz.com for details!
After all the fun at Westgate, make your way to Camelback Ranch-Glendale where all Kiss Me I’m Irish participants will get TWO-FOR-ONE tickets the Chicago White Sox versus Seattle Mariners spring training game at 1 pm.
Just a few miles away from Westgate City Center, Camelback Ranch-Glendale is a state-of-the-art baseball facility like no other. Located on 141 acres at 111th Avenue and Camelback Road, this Sonoran Desert-inspired, two-team facility offers baseball fans the ballpark's modern amenities and design as well as dramatic mountain views that create one of the most inviting Spring Training atmospheres in all of baseball. www.camelbackranchbaseball.com
