ShamROCK the Ville 5k Run


Shamrock the Ville 5k run buffalo mascot.

The annual ShamROCK the Ville is a certified 5k Run/Walk held on or near Saint Patrick's Day in partnership with Downtown Bartlesville Inc. Get your green on and join us at ShamROCK the Ville.

 

 

Please help Mary Martha Outreach fight poverty in the 5 counties we serve! With the ever-increasing number of families coming into the mission for food, clothing and other essential services, it is our purpose to raise additional funds with this annual event. The less fortunate in this community have no idea what wonderful people there are here in Bartlesville who really care about them. You answer the call of the Lord every single time there is a need.

All of our proceeds go DIRECTLY to our critical need programs: food, clothing, and crisis at home and away.

5k Run (Or walk, there's no hurry!)

Not up to a 5k run? (For those of you not in the know, that's just over 3 miles.) You can walk the course, or even join us for a shorter one mile walk/run. Whichever you decide, you will be raising money for a great cause - Mary Martha Outreach.

Get Your Green On!

One of the funnest parts of ShamROCK the Ville is seeing all the green. Green shirts? Sure. Green hats? Of course. Green pants? Yep. All the normal St. Paddie's stuff, but you can also see green tutu's, green tights, green hair and even green… dogs? Yep. Everyone wants to be in on the fun!
