Downtown Goes Green

Tuesday, March 9, 2010 by Lindsay Gill

No, I'm not talking about the eco-friendly green!  It's time to celebrate St. Patrick's Day (and our Guest Service Manager, Megan Mills's birthday)!

St. Patty's Day festivities begin on Saturday, March 13 with the four mile Shamrock Run & Walk.  This run & walk starts and ends at Monument Circle, just one half block from our Indianapolis downtown hotel!

Mayor Greg Ballard will dye the downtown canal green in honor of
St. Patrick's Day on Wednesday, March 17 at 6:50am.  At 11:30am the St. Patrick's Day Parade will begin.  It starts at North and Pennsylvania Streets, goes south on Pennsylvania, right onto Ohio, then back north of Meridian Street.  The parade ends at Vermont Street where there's a tent party featuring live entertainment, a beer garden and more!  I have to work at my beautiful green Indianapolis hotel, but YOU should go in my place!  If you have one too many pints of Guinness, you can find downtown Indianapolis hotel reservations with us!

For more information on the festivities, check out the
Indy St. Patrick's Day site!
