Weekend Fun: 9 Things to Do St. Patrick’s Day Weekend in Sioux Falls
As the old Irish toast goes:
My friends are the best friends
Loyal, willing and able.
Now let’s get to drinking!
All glasses off the table!
Even though St. Patrick's Day observes the death of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, it has become a day to celebrate Irish culture with parades and green beer. St. Patrick's Day is a day when everyone is Irish if they want to be.
Several events are planned around Sioux Falls this weekend to celebrate.
