Team WWOZ flourished in the Fall Classic 5K on Saturday, November 8!  We gathered 37 entrants, the third most among non-profit organizations, and won $750 from the Crescent City Fitness Foundation and its program of support to both Schools and Non-Profits.

 

We had the participation of the great clarinetist Evan Christopher, several couples, and our sterling complement of volunteers.  Judy and Brian of the Ooh Poo Pah Doo Lounge provided tasty red beans and rice to sustain our volunteer runners, and we had enough to feed members of the voluminous Youth Run, whose terrific camaraderie we enjoyed to the max! We had a wonderful time!

Team WWOZ will be out at many events in 2015. Email volunteers@wwoz.org to find out how you can join the team, and how to order the 2015 team shirt, which will soon be available.

 

Onward ever!
