Rain and delays for freighters didn t keep the powerboats from entertaining race fans that filled St. Clair s Palmer Park Sunday afternoon.
The boats raced up and down the St. Clair River for the 27th running of the St. Clair River Classic Offshore Race.
Last year’s races were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and organizers weren’t sure if this year’s would be held until several weeks before the event, said St. Clair County Board of Commissioners Chairman Jeff Bohm, who was acting as an emcee during the event.
Between the races, boats on trailers lined North Riverside Avenue. Crowds gathered around them, looking at the boats and talking with racers. The river was closed to pleasure crafts, but freight traffic was still given the right-of-way, resulting in the delays.
The Old Shillelagh.
It was clear that the COVID-19 pandemic had hit Michigan around this time last year, with officials canceling Detroit s longstanding St. Patrick s Day Parade. A year later and the virus remains a threat: Detroit s St. Patrick s Day Parade is once again canceled, but the state has loosened restrictions to allow bars and restaurants to open for indoor dining again. Remember: gathering in a crowd without a mask is still dangerous, but if you re determined to drink a beer and eat a corned beef sandwich, we looked up to see what local bars are doing this year.
Events are on Wednesday, March 17 unless otherwise noted. Did we miss any? Let us know at tips@metrotimes.com and we ll update the list.
