St. Patrick's Day Parade & Celebration in Crosslake
2025-03-15 | Crosslake, MN, Crosslake, MN, United States
For 51 years, Crosslake has been celebrating the coming of Spring with a St Patrick’s Day Parade. What started out in the 70’s as a remedy for Cabin Fever, has grown into a destination event for thousands of green-clad, Irish-for-a-day, weekend enthusiasts. Some build a float and travel the 2-mile-long route tossing hundreds of pounds of candy and trinkets, and others set up lawn chairs, days in advance to get ”their perfect spot” for family and friends. While the parade is the highlight, the celebration begins days before as we sweep the streets of snow, adorn our shops in green and pre-game with a Treasure Hunt, Live Music, the Clover Dash 5K and more! Mark your calendars for March 14-16, 2024 and see for yourself why the Crosslake St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Celebration has been declared the Best of the Brainerd Lakes AND the Best in the State!

OneChild Radio Event
2025-03-12 - 2025-03-13 | The Pulse & The Word, 31287 Brunes Street, Pequot Lakes, MN
You can make a difference around the world!
We invite you to sponsor a child through our partnership with OneChild. As a sponsor you’ll be part of a global community of Child Champions, bringing hope to children in some of the world’s hardest places. Your sponsorship will provide holistic care so your sponsored child can overcome barriers and thrive.
OneChild serves more than 40,000 children around the world. They work in many of the hardest places.
Places where others can’t go.
Places where Christians can be persecuted.
Places where gang violence is rampant.
Places where people have been forgotten.
Places where children are suffering.
Places where kids need help the most.
Our afternoon host and Program Director on The Pulse Dave Wonders, traveled to Nicaragua with OneChild recently.
See what Dave has to say:
I recently had the privilege of visiting OneChild’s Hope Centers in Nicaragua, where I met some incredible kids. Each one is uniquely gifted by God and full of potential to become a world-changer. But these children and children just like them around the world need your help to thrive.
For just $44 a month, you can provide a child living in poverty with nutritious food, educational support, medical care, and—most importantly—the opportunity to discover the hope and love of Jesus Christ. Your sponsorship can transform the life of one child, and in the process, God may use that child to transform your life as well.

OneChild brings hope to the children in need through four vital tools: faith, education, health, and relationships. Each child is given a voice and gets to have individualized care in all these areas in order to build up a strong community and Church presence for generations.
Join us March 12th & Marth 13th
as we host a radio event to focus of these children.
