The ever festive St Patrick's Day Pub Crawl around downtown is one of many community events when Traverse City's small-town spirit is evident. Ten pubs and restaurants are on the tour. Many participants only visit a few as they catch up with friends and neighbors. "How's the new job?" "Which resort still has snow left on the hills?" "Congrats on junior's basketball season!" "How's the new baby?" "Is anyone thinking of selling their house in your neighborhood?" "How are your folks?" "When is Joe headed back from Florida?" are snippets of conversations that may be overhead at any of the participating venues. St Pat's in Traverse City is a day when everybody does know your name.Everyone feels Irish on St Patrick's Day. Creative costumes and a sea o' green fill the sidewalks! A traditional Irish lunch at Minerva's starts the crawl and several stops feature bands in the evening. Green beer and Irish whiskey are the drinks of the day, and Danny Boy is played just a few times. Designated drivers, taxis and shuttle services help everyone have a safe holiday. Hope you've found a place like Traverse City to enjoy St Patrick's Day with friends; if not, head to Traverse City and make some new friends!
