Entertainment
Irish Eyes will be smiling when the Northern Virginia Firefighters’ Emerald Society Pipe Band performs traditional Irish and Celtic music at the R2R 10K and 28th Irish Sprint! Donned in the traditional saffron kilt and hunter green tunic of the Irish regiments, the Emerald Society reflects the good works of local fire & rescue services and fosters appreciation for the Emerald Isle through their pipes and drums. The band includes Northern Virginia firefighters, police officers, members of the armed forces and civilians. 
The Luck of the Irish will spread throughout the race courses on March 27 when Lynbrook Leprechauns cheer runners of the Run to Register 10K and 28th Irish Sprint.
