Limelight Leprechauns Leap for a Cause

Alli Lindor — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 16:03:55 +0000

The Seattle LVP team joined forces with San Francisco WCM (along with over 13,000 other dashers) to leap for a cause at the annual “Saint Patrick’s Day Dash” in Seattle, Washington. Appropriately christened “Limelight Leprechauns”, the group took the race by storm dressed fashionably in the latest Leprechaun gear, and trendsetting personalized Limelight Leprechaun t-shirts. Despite 40-degree weather, high winds, rain, and snow, the Leprechauns were rearing to go at the starting line. Highlights were the endless array of green tutus and life-sized cans of Guinness jogging next to six foot tall Leprechauns.

The F5 St. Patrick’s Day Dash began 27 years ago and benefits the Detlef Schrempf Foundation in support of Northwest children’s charities.
