In Naperville, you can cheer for your favorite floats at their annual St. Patrick's Day Parade, which will start at Naperville High School and end at the Municipal Center. You can also partake in the St. Paddy's 5k, which will take place before the parade. You can bring food items to donate to the Loaves and Fishes Community Food Pantry. St. Charles will host their own St. Patrick's Day Parade on March 14 right down Main Street.
If you want to go the distance, go to Chicago. The 60th Anniversary St. Patrick's Day Parade will step off on Saturday, March 14. There is also the traditional dyeing of the Chicago River a bright, emerald green for the holiday. Navy Pier will celebrate on March 14 and 15 with the famous Shannon Rovers pipe and drum band that is sure to get you in the Irish spirit. If you are able to get out a little early, Navy Pier will also have a great fireworks display on March 12. There's plenty of time to make a treat that will soon become one of your favorite cold, snowy weekend comfort foods, Irish Oatmeal Cookies. A good and quick recipe can be found at allreci-
pes.com. It uses McCann's Irish Oatmeal, which is available at Woodman's on Orchard. Speaking of food, don't forget to check out your favorite neighborhood restaurants for traditional St. Patrick's Day favorites. What's St. Patrick's Day without shamrock shakes from McDonald's? How about a Corned Beef Sandwich from Ballydoyle's Irish Pub in Aurora? And wish your favorite Rosary Leprechaun a very happy St. Patrick's Day!
