Essex Meadows Wellness Day-August 2013


Running for Sister Cities Essex Haiti!

Essex Meadows hosted their 1st Annual Wellness Day: Run or Walk for a Cause on Saturday, August 10, 2013.  About 50 people participated in a 5 K Road/Trail Race, a 2K Fitness Walk, and a 1/3 mile Kid’s Fun Race around Essex Meadows’ beautiful grounds.  All proceeds benefited Sister Cities Essex Haiti.

Sister Cities Essex Haiti thanks Essex Meadows for choosing us as the beneficiary of their First Wellness Day.  They did an amazing job pulling it all together particularly as it was the first time they have ever launched such an undertaking.  We also want to thank  the staff who helped out, the residents who ran, walked or wheeled the race, and all the other residents who came out to cheer or just to permit the race to occur.

 We truly appreciate everyone’s support.  Our vision was to develop a true sister city relationship between Essex  and Deschapelles and their environs: the people of one community helping another community.  Funds raised will enable us to continue the construction of the library.  Thank you!!
