Elishama and I have been working hard putting together the HEARTBEAT RUN. It is this Sunday, October 14! This event supports the student-run free medical clinics at UC Davis School of Medicine. UCD SOM has 7 free clinics, and they provide free healthcare services to the residents in Sacramento who cannot pay for healthcare. The Heartbeat Run consists of a 5K & 10K run/walk, kids run, and health fair. We have a Moishe House Team that will be competing in the 5K Team Challenge. I'll let you all know if they place. MHS people have also been helping out with the planning and advertising of the event. We are also going to have a MHS something at the fair (haven't decided yet on what that will be). The Heartbeat Run has been a great way to get our MHS participants involved in a great community cause. If any of you are near Sacramento and want to participate [or if you want to donate to support the free medical clinics], check out the website at http://www.heartbeatrun.org/
Besides the Heartbeat Run, I am doing my usual things. Our Moishe House has recently learned that Jews love the Davis Farmers Market. We have had 2 fun evenings in the park, listening to music and eating dinner from the market. We will keep having those events until we get rained out by the weather.
