To support
Pay $1 for tap water (instead of taking it for free) at participating areas and restaurants through Saturday, in support of UNICEF’s Tap Project, which supplies clean water around the world. Visit tapproject.org/cities/chicago for a list of participants.
To celebrate
Timothy O’Toole’s (622 N. Fairbanks) raffles off two tickets to Ireland at 8:30 a.m. Monday. Arrive early (and enjoy a traditional Irish breakfast, bagpipers and dancers) to qualify for more raffle tickets: show up by 6 a.m. to receive three tickets per purchase, by 7 a.m. for two, and by 8 a.m. for one.
To send
Tired of the same old sentiments? Send a tongue-in-cheek e-card with St. Patrick’s Day messages such as “I find few things more scenic than 40 tons of green dye dumped in a river of raw sewage.” Available online at someecards.com.
Flying high
PF Flyers is offering the retro Bob Cousy All-American Reissue in honor of the Hall of Fame Boston Celtic player who wore the brand during his career. The shoes are available in kelly green or black for $66 at revolveclothing.com.
