This year, we proudly celebrate 10 years of the Shamrock Shuffle, and we’re inviting the entire community to be part of the fun!

Whether you’re chasing a personal best, pushing a stroller, walking with friends, or simply showing up to support a great cause, the Shamrock Shuffle is for everyone!

The one-of-a-kind certified course weaves through West Leechburg, starting and finishing at the West Leechburg Fire Department Social Hall and delivers the perfect mix of movement, laughter, and community spirit.
