Eighty degrees? In March? In Chicago? With this weather, most of us are already thinking about Memorial Day, but let’s not forget that St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner. At Ox&Pen, even though our office walls remain Dutch Orange, we’re celebrating with some Paddy’s Day trivia and by wearing green.
If you couldn’t make it to the South Side Irish Parade last weekend, make sure you find your way downtown this Saturday to watch our beloved Chicago River turn emerald green. Stick around for a bit to see the Downtown St. Patrick’s Day Parade, which runs north on Columbus from Balbo to Monroe.
The river-dyeing begins at 10:00 a.m. and the parade follows at noon. Then, by all means, drink some green beers, but please be safe and get ready for next weekend’s celebration. Ox&Pen is throwing a soft launch party on Saturday, March 24 and we hope to see you there! Find more details on Facebook.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from all of us at Ox&Pen!
