About this Event
Pupusa Party is back for our 3rd annual fundraiser. We host a bike race, fun ride and bands to raise money for education in El Salvador, this year on Halloween. This year we have a campaign to fund a school bus through Voices on the Border. Registration is $25. Here is a bit about each part of the Pupusa Party Event:
Fun Ride 2pm Female Union Band Society Cemetery :
The Stories of Resistance Tour will take you to 4 cemeteries where you’ll learn stories of the Underground Railroad, a fierce homegrown singer, a DC educator and much more.
Starting from the Female Union Band Society Cemetery in Georgetown and ending in Glenwood Cemetery in Edgewood, each stop on the ~9 mile ride will intrigue you with the stories of the departed buried here in DC. All ages. Ends at the Dew Drop Inn.
Bike Race 1pm Female Union Band Society Cemetery :
Receive a list of random locations in the city, manned and unmanned, collect signatures and items and return to the finish at the Dew Drop Inn. Winners in categories such as Women/Femme/Trans, 65+, Brakeless will all win prizes. Registration is at 1pm (pay when you arrive) and race is at 2pm.
