The Go For The Green St. Patrick’s Race in Utica, IL will kick off a month of St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations.  The race starts at 9am, and you will run along the I&M Canal.  It is a chip timed race with a delicious green beverage when you cross that finish line.  You have a choice of green beer, green wine or a Sprite in your very own souvenir cup.  Stick around Utica to listen to a bagpipe band, attend a puppy parade, stay for the human parade and party it up in Utica all night long.
