G Gathering A windy Shamrock run for Operation Smile

A windy Shamrock run for Operation Smile



The windy Shamrock Marathon proved to be a lucky day for runners, volunteers and spectators at the oceanfront boardwalk. Runners and volunteers supported the Operation Smile benefit while the crowd cheered them across the finish line. What a great day and a great cause to be a part of for everyone involved.
