5 Lucky Events in Cincinnati this Weekend

This Friday is St. Patrick’s Day; and we’re feeling very lucky! Lucky to live in Cincinnati, lucky that spring is starting next week, and most of all, lucky for this weekend’s selection of family friendly events. From a charmed Sunday Funday at the Taft, to the rare-as-a-rainbow Ballet Toybox, to the golden ticket event — the Cincinnati Parent Summer Camp Fair — this weekend epitomizes everything we love about Cincinnati.

Here are 5 lucky events in Cincinnati this weekend:
St. Patrick’s Day Family Swim at Goldfish Swim School West Chester

Fri., March 17 from 6:30-8 p.m.
Come celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by spending a fun evening in the pool with your family! RSVP requested – call (513) 857-1700, email [email protected], or stop by the front desk.
Why it’s lucky: Goldfish Swim School is an absolutely gorgeous facility, and this event won’t cost you all your gold: Family Swim is $5/family member with a $15/family max.

At 2 p.m., join OTRimprov for a hilarious performance of sketch comedy.
Why it’s lucky: Where do we begin? We are so lucky to have the Taft’s monthly free Fundays; and this one lets your kids make the kind of sparkly, shiny treasures any leprechaun would love to have!
