If you're looking for something fun to do this weekend, then get ready!  It's the 16th Annual World's Shortest St. Patrick's Day Parade in Hot Springs. I went last year and had so much fun that I'm going this year too!

The fun starts Friday, March 15 at 5PM in downtown Hot Springs with   First Ever First Annual Worlds Shortest St. Patricks’ ZERO K the 3 heat race begins at 6PM on Bridge Street. Even though they aren't accepting any more participants it will be fun to cheer them on as they complete the 299-foot course.
