There will be live music, street vendors, food vendors, drink vendors, and entertainment for the kids. Bands scheduled to perform are John Carroll, Irish Steppers, GVL Pipes and Drums, The Synergy Twins and Drop O' Pure.
Food and drink will be available for purchase by ticket. One ticket equals $1.00 and food costs between 4 - 12 tickets. Beverages are also available for purchase. Beer and wine will be 5 tickets. Wristbands will be required to consume alcohol. If you want to jump the lines you can purchase will-call tickets in advance at gvlstpatricks.com
This year's charitable focus is St. Baldrick's Foundation. This non-profit organization raises funds for critical research in finding a cure for childhood cancers. There will be a head-shaving fundraiser booth at the festival!
Home Maintenance Hop Tip
March is a great time to take a look around outside! Give the outside of your home a good bath, the deck and patio too! Check your deck for any nail pops, loose or splintered boards, and consider a fresh coat of paint or sealant. Make sure there aren't any new cracks that may have developed over the winter months in the patio, driveway or any walkways.
