Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day at Chapman’s 4th Annual Irish Fest on Saturday, March 14th, at the Chapman Middle School. Festivities will run from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Erin Hamilton, Co-organizer, highlighted some of the many things attendees can expect at the event.

“We have multiple bounce houses, and we have face painting; all of it is free for the community; the library is doing some activities; we will have live music by a local artist.”

“We will also have the local dance studio performing as well.”

All children’s activities at the Irish Fest are completely free thanks to generous sponsors.

Hamilton said the event has grown since last year.  

“This time around, we have more food vendors, and we have a coffee vendor. Last year, we didn’t have all that at all. So that’s pretty cool.”

“We have over 30 vendors, where last year, we didn’t have that many.  And we have all kinds of vendors.”

“We have definitely grown, and I’m very excited.”

Like last year, attendees can expect a visit from Chappy the Leprechaun while at the festival.
