Thanks to everyone who came out to our kickoff Happy Hour and Pisco Tasting at Las Canteras last week. We were able to raise a nice bit of funds for scholarships, and everyone seemed to have a good time (and drank like it!).

We will be running our first race, the Veteran’s Day 10K in Washington, DC, on November 15.  Nine of us, the “phalanx,” if you will, will be running with one of the letters of “ESPERANZA” on our shirts, and will run the course as a group.  If you can actually run, or if you just don’t want to run in line, you can also run solo and join us when we all regroup at the finish line.

Register here and please affiliate yourself with “Team Esperanza.” The registration fee is about $28, including fees.  Please try to register by Friday, October 16. We also ask that registrants raise at least $100 to go towards scholarships although we would love for you to raise more; our hope is that we can raise enough money for one more $5,000 scholarship through this event.  If you run, you will get a free Team Esperanza t-shirt, and, of course, everlasting glory.
