There are no words big enough for the heartbreak our community is feeling after the tragic Nippon Paper Mill Tragedy. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, friends, coworkers, and everyone affected by this unimaginable loss.

We consider our customers family. Majority of our customers are Blue Collar workers. Many Nippon employees. Although it doesn’t feel like enough we want to support our family in whatever way we can.

On Sunday June 7th, Shamrock Bar & Grill will be donating 20% of ALL gross sales to relief efforts for the families of the victims. We are open 7 am to 10 pm.

These families are facing unimaginable grief, and we hope together we can help ease even a small part of the burden they are carrying.

🎁✨ HEVIN is honored to support our veteran families this Christmas by helping provide gifts for their children.
If you are a veteran or a military family needing help with Christmas gifts this year, please reach out to us.
