A Message From the Mayor – Spring 2026

2026-04-06T16:31:38-04:00

The 35th Annual Shamrock Run is in the history books. The race is over, and the medals have all been handed out. We have packed up the tents and put away the signs until next year.

We had folks here from neighboring counties, some young first-time racers who were nervous about a long road race, and some folks who decided they just needed to get out [...]
