Looking for something to do Saturday that does not involve staying inside all day or being a State Patty's Day asshole? Alliance Christian Fellowship, Campus Crusade For Christ, and Navigators are teaming up for the first ever Street Love Tour.
The event, beginning at 1 p.m. on Saturday, is modeled after a house crawl, minus the alcohol. The Around-The-World-themed tour kicks off at 120 West Fairmount Avenue and will continue on to stops on Allen Street, Atherton Street, Burrowes Street, and Park Avenue.
Each location will be geared toward a certain country, and plenty of music, food, and drinks (non-alcoholic, of course) will be provided.
