Kid-free time is essential for parental sanity. And a little adult beverage doesn’t hurt either. St. Paddy’s Day Swig and Jig in downtown Kelseyville definitely offers the latter. During the annual event, businesses, bars, and wineries serve samples of local craft beer and wine, and appetizers, too. Dressing up in shamrock finery is encouraged. The event happens on March 15, 1–5 p.m. Tickets are $30 in advance ($35 at the door) and may be purchased at visitkelseyville.com. Participants must check in at Lake County Economic Development on Main Street by 3 p.m. in order to participate.
