 For the 18th
straight year, the folks at the Hoosier Lottery help Indianapolis kick off St.
Patrick’s Day by making the downtown canal run green. Don’t miss your chance to
be a part of the fun. The “Greening of the Canal” takes place from 5 to 6
p.m. Friday on the canal at Ohio and West St.
Put on your greenest outfit and come out for live music, dancing, special
celebrity appearances and a whole lot of St. Paddy’s Day fun. The event also
features prize drawings and enjoy live music by Irish folk singer
Eunan McIntyre leading up to the greening at approximately 5:45 p.m.

 Walking group hopes to venture outside soon
 Spring
weather is just around the corner which means that the IGC Walking Group
soon ventures back outside. Now is the time to get your body ready to
walk
outside again.
Prepare now by joining the IGC Walking Group for 30
minutes of indoor walking on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. We hope that
March brings us some days that allow our group to get outside. The
group walks inside when the temperature at noon is below 50 degrees or if it rains.
The group meets in the Atrium of the IGC-South building when
walking inside or by the Abraham Lincoln statue on Orr Plaza when walking
outside. We have three different walking groups that walk at a variety of
speeds, so walkers of any level are welcome. We hope to see you there! Please
